1992 ignition coil
My cart is having intermittent spark once warmed up and I have narrowed my problem down to a faulty ignition coil. I read on other threads to replace with a newer style with a built in igniter. Before I order one I want to be sure what to get. My cart is a 1992 club car. It seems to me I can just get one for a 1997 club car and that is it. I guess the engines are basically the same but with a more efficient combo coil design. Please let me know if I am understanding this correctly or should I just get the original design. Thanks.

Re: 1992 ignition coil
Someone already removed the rpm limiter. I just acquired this cart and previous owner said they just had the ignitor replaced so I did not consider it to be bad. I disconnected the kill wire and still had intermittent to no spark after the engine warmed up. I decided to replace the coil with original type and it ran great for a minute then no spark.....ugh. So I took the ignitor off and ran cold water over it, put it back on and it worked. I then decided to relocate ignitor to the inside of the cart frame to keep it away from a heat source and all is well. I guess you can't buy quality electronic parts anymore. Thanks to all.

Re: 1992 ignition coil
i couldnt get any fire from the ignition coil and took it off the cart to replace. is that small wire at the bottom a kill switch wire? if so, maybe i should put it back together and go a different route.

Re: 1992 ignition coil
are you talking about the single wire from coil? the one that runs to ignitor/rmp limitor?.......in a perfect world you want it hooked up.............................

Re: 1992 ignition coil
i beleive you can leave the brown wire disconnected and cart will run however if you do you should put a tach on the cart as its not good at all to over rev these things.................................
