Rattle Noise On My 2pg Motor/Clutch
I recently purchased an EZGO golf cart that has a 2pg gas motor. There is a rattling noise coming from either the motor or the clutch area. I can't tell for sure. I even took it to my local golf cart shop and they couldn't tell what the problem was. Ugh!
When the golf cart is pedal to the metal and going top speed at 25mph it seems that the rattle is almost completely gone. During slow acceleration and pushing back and forth on the gas pedal I can here the rattle. I have checked for loose bolts and screws and didn't find any. Does anyone have any idea on where this rattle is coming from or what could be causing it? I could put the golf cart on a jack and shoot/upload a quick video if this would help diagnose the problem. On a side note, the engine and frame of my cart is a 1986 or older and the body is a TXT 1995 or newer. Thank you for you help!!! |

Re: Rattle Noise On My 2pg Motor/Clutch
Without hearing it some things to check.
Check all the motor mounts for any cracks. Look the exhaust over for clearances all over and look for shiny marks. Take out some wood wedges and gently drive them between the motor frame and swing arm on the exhaust side. Test and see if the rattle changes or goes away. bad loose mounts can make a racket. Do the same test between the muffler and motor frame. Seen mufflers with loose stuff make odd noises . |

Re: Rattle Noise On My 2pg Motor/Clutch
On one of my 2pg carts I had a bad secondary clutch that rattled and was real loud
Also on another 2 pg cart I fixed the little screws on the primary clutch cover were loose so I locktited them and no more noise |
