newbie with a g1
Hi everyone I just recently got a g1 not sure what year but is a decent looking cart for its age try to put some pics later as I go on this. it wasn't pumping fuel I ordered a new fuel pump and it acts like its getting to much air if I block of air flow it will start to run but after ten or 15 seconds it will die has decent compression and spark . new to these golf carts also looks like it might need a new bearing it is dripping oil from the passenger side looks like a main bearing behind the cooling fan. any help would be appreciated.whats the best place for parts a g1. and is there any one who has replaced that main bearing seal got any pointers or suggestions. thank you n advanced

Re: newbie with a g1
Welcome to BGW! With 2 cycles, you need ring compression and crankcase pressure. The sighn of leaking oil tells me your crank seal is bad on the fly wheel side for shure and you should change them both. Your fuel pum runs off crankcase pressure, so that's most likley your problem. Site sponsors here can help with parts you need, or your local Yamaha golf car dealer can get you very high quality OEM parts at a little higher price. You can do a "search" in this section like "g1 crank seal replacement". Many have detailed pix's. Have fun with your new toy

Re: newbie with a g1
thank you it is the seal got parts ordered from my local Yamaha shop thunder power sports n Peoria but seeing as its a thirty mile drive and they were out of stock I ordered them online. probably do the 1 side for now cause it is easy to get too then redo the rest in the off camping season found the serial number and it looks to be a 84 posted some pics up too. any 1 replace this seal with any advice or tricks would be helpful can turn a wrench but a mechanic I am not! thinking I can do it right on the frame.looking forward to getting this g1 going!
