Low and behold a couple of weeks ago, now the same **** problem surfaced out of nowhere. Happened a couple times and one of the times threw a code via the yellow warning light. Took it over to the dealer and boy was he surprised. He as well as I thought 'they' had fixed the problem. Same code as was on the '19, about evaporative canister and O2 sensor.

Happened a couple more times, so what the hell - let me try something. I removed the black rubber line going from the gas tank to the evap canister. Didn't want fuel to slosh out the line from the tank, so found a place to mount it higher. On the evap side, didn't know if it 'sucks', or just sits there, so in case it sucks - put a fuel fiter on the end of the line just to filter the air going into that thing - in case.

Now - go figure - don't know if it is coincidence or a possible fix, but I've been running that cart all over the place for a couple of weeks and NOT ONE ISSUE since I performed this "fix". Also, this 'fix' does NOT affect the check engine light. That is the light stays off as opposed to it staying on all the time with the O2 sensor wire being removed.

Give it a try - what do you have to lose? That **** canister is only there for CA emissions anyway, and doesn't do a darn thing for me.

Please do me one favor though and if indeed you try this, let me know the outcome. Again, don't know if I just pleased the Club Car gods, or did I stumble upon something good.

Hi Vince,

Can you post a few pictures of exactly what you did to your cart and that rubber line please? Thx.
Updated: Ignore, I saw that you did indeed post a picture a little further down in another post. THANK YOU.

Vince, I have a new to me 2021 Club Car with very low hours but out of warranty and had the check engine light on our first long drive. I disconnected the O2 sensor to get me home and started searching for a fix. I saw your post that night and reconnected the O2 sensor and disconnected the EVap line. We’ve put about 10 hrs on it now with no issues. Runs great. Thanks for the post !

Glad to hear that it works for you as well. Been over a year now and probably close to 2000 miles later and still no more issues.

2020 Tempo with the Kohler engine efi, kind of having same issues except this one is weak...

you step on pedal to go, and it takes a while to get up to speed sometimes.

When you rev it up and let off and get back in it sometimes it will take it slow to get up to rpms and other times its responsive

Have tried unhooking O2 sensor and canister vent with no luck
