1990 EZ-Go:Starter Doesn't Engage and/or Engine Dies

ctuck0659 · 09-08-2008, 12:15 PM

I need help diagnosing the problem w/ my 1990 EZ-GO gas golf cart: The starter doesn't turn most of the time when I press the acc. When it does, it starts normally, will run several feet and then looses power & dies. It will usually restart and run poorly several times and then the starter stops cranking. I tested the battery- it's good. I replaced the solenoid thinking that was a logical culprit for both symptoms but that didn't help. I read in the forum that an auto solenoid won't work on a golf cart- is that true? Anyone experienced anything similar or have any ideas on what the problem might be?
