Default Re: 88 EZGO Marathon Project - Just Got it - Need Advice

Pulling the Drive Clutch - I got lucky and found a bolt that fit, 1/4 inch extension, and an Impact and she popped right off. Now my question is how do I get the bearing out of the race in the Clutch Side Housing. It is in there good and I don't want to crack that case. Also I attached a pic of the plastic mount under the Fuel Pump, where do I find a gasket for this? Thanks, Craig

I have 88 also and my starter/generator is always in starter mode... Do i have a bad switch, or bad generator/starter.... Just did top end rebuild and it starts hard. If i push throttle pedal to floor it still tries to start.... i thought just first inch of pushing pedal down is to start, but mine is tring to start the whole time even when it is running? any ideas???? I am pointing toward either the switch hooked to the gas pedal that makes it start or generator.... I really dont think its generator but, not sure?????

Adjust the pedal switch it's not closing or the solenoid is sticking.

So still moving slowly but making progress. Engine is back together. Bored and installed .50 piston and shaved the head. Just finshed up some of the paint work and put the new wheels and tires on it. I still have some painting to do and a ways to go. Here is an updated picture. Color is Eastwood Moonlight Blue Metallic.
