Default Re: Can't get 82 Gas to start

It seemed like it was running better, the smoke has subsided quite a bit. I had a mechanic come take a look at it with me yesterday and we tore apart the drive clutch. Thanks to a video someone posted on another thread here, I was able to see how a drive clutch should work, and mine is so loose its not fully engaging. I took the exhaust off again and took a look at the piston, it looks very close to the one in link, but I def could be wrong. Later, I'll take a video of it moving and post it up somewhere. Thank you all for your help, can I buy y'all a couple beers?

Looks ok. Must have been a reflection, or a dark spot in the first photo.

The saga continues, lol. I got the new drive clutch in today and we went ahead and installed it. It's still not fully engaging and I just can't figure out why. When I floor it, the belt doesn't seem to ride up as far as I thought it would, so I'm still not even hitting 10mph. It doesn't make it halfway up the drive clutch. Is there anything I'm forgetting or overlooking?

Hey bud, did you ever verify the belt width? Just curious.

It appears to be 1 1/8" x 45" and I have no idea of the exact age, but I do have 2. I'm gonna give the EZGO dealer here in town a call and see what they have in stock a well.

While a shorter belt may not be what you need, I think you'll find that your belt is supposed to be 1 3/16. If it'sworn too narrow it ccan't hook up and won't drive the sheaves open all the way.

Well, I got a Dayco hp3004 belt that should be here tomorrow. In the meantime, I've tried to get a couple people out to look at it, and being Vegas, they're flakes. So far my only option is to rent a trailer and take it in to Vegas carts and performance, but moneys a little tight right now. Any other options? Should I try to take a video of it running for better analysis?
