Re: Does not accelerate smoothly
1986 has a 5 solenoid speed control system. Jack a wheel off the floor and with the seat off press the pedal slowly and confirm each solenoid is clicking 1-5. and the wheels are turning progressively faster at each click 2-5

Re: Does not accelerate smoothly
I just tried what you said and with wheels off the ground it seems to work fine and under load if I go slowly through each solenoid it work fine in forward in reverse not so much

Re: Does not accelerate smoothly
So it works in F but not R.
Forward is 36v and reverse is 18v in these old carts. Check the battery voltage for all 6 batteries individually and post it here > |

Re: Does not accelerate smoothly
They are brand new trojan batteries it works in forward IF you depress the pedal slow enough to listen to each solenoid otherwise it will still lunge when it hits the 5th one

Re: Does not accelerate smoothly
Does it have a stock motor or does it have a speed motor .I have the same cart with a speed motor does the same thing your describing.Starts off normal but when you hit the fourth speed it goes.If you floor it in the gravel will spin the wheels with the stock motor was slow like 13 miles per hour
