Default Re: G-16 weird starts

Did you just replace the belt? A new belt can act like that, especially if it isn't a good quality one or if its a little too small. A new tight belt can grab the center shaft of the primary clutch and start to turn the secondary, in turn moving the cart. On new belts, I usually run the cart in neutral for a while and vary the rpm to break in the belt. New belts will work better as you drive the cart more.

How old is the primary clutch? It could be a little worn. Sometimes the primary clutches will stick, meaning the sheaves won't retract all the way. This would be from internal parts being broken or worn. A dry unlubed clutch can also cause issues.
