Its a 1985 club car... so it's a 36v vehicle...

it has 5 solenoids connected to a series of microswitches to control speed...

If you are having a power problem pulling hills, then you more than likely need a motor, or motor repair. However, repair on the motor is unlikely, its 22 years old..

For more sad news, the frame does not easily accomodate upgrading to a more stable electrical system... A large portion of your front end parts are no longer in production.

With all that being said, check your battery voltage from the beginning positive to the ending negative... they may have a battery in backwards reducing power...
