Dust in the engine? That's a filtering issue.

A 2-stroke won't last but a few hours if it had 'dust' inside the engine. He's gotta be talking about the engine bay.

haha not inside the engine but in every nook and cranny surrounding the engine. i did blow it out with compressed air once a week but that fine dust just keeps finding a spots to hide. i am thinking of putting some sheet metal down and possibly creating a scoop for the bay to keep the air circulating. not a clean freak but the dust sure is bad here...

Hmmm, I wonder if you're cart has a "negative charge" like static? If it's not grounded right? It could be "attracting" dust like a magnet, kinda like the "Swiffer" commercial! LOL

The cure for this is called irrigation. Make the desert wet, plant grass. leave some sandy spots and stick a bunch of little holes in the ground,
The cart will be relaxed and feel at home and you can sell tickets and bunches of guys & gals will come around and make you rich as they get frustrated trying to find where they whacked some little ball too.

There is a possibility that the cart is making some static electricity and attracting more dust than normal. It wouldn't hurt to attach a short piece of chain to the frame so that some of it touches the ground.

It can't hurt. But it just might be the area you are in.
