Default Starter belt slipping

Hey. My 2004 club car ds has a slipping starter belt. I have replaced it with a new one and it is still slipping.

The tension is good, is there anything I can do to make it grab.

It is slipping from the starter at the top, it seems to bind well on the engine side



Could it be the starter has the wrong pulley on?

You were bang on. New belt (starter this time) and it’s going great. Thanks again you saved stacks of head scratching :-)

So what is the correct belt and where to purchase it? I’m having the exact same problem and I was getting ready to change out the sheave on the Starter/Generator.

Mine starts fine with a belt bought at autozone, just matched it up for length
FHP belts may not work

I went to a local belt place and measured up for size and depth, I’m in the uk and golf cart spares are ridiculously expensive

Depends on the year of your cart. There are a few different lengths.

It can be matched up, but personally I have the best service life from OE club car belts. Aftermarket belts don't seem to last long for me.
