Re: 88 EZGO Won't Turn Over
I think the battery is good but I'm not sure. I could try boosting it and see if that makes a difference. I really don't want to have to rebuild the engine...

Re: 88 EZGO Won't Turn Over
Mine is an 98 TXT and mine sorta did something similar. Double check you voltage at the battery and make sure that all you electrical connections are good. And just a thought....the motor is free correct? Can you turn it over by hand??

I'll check the voltage and connections.
The motor isn't stuck all the belts move it just won't engage. |

Re: 88 EZGO Won't Turn Over
are we dealing with an 88 two stroke , if so then here's where we start
1 check compression need at least 100lbs 2 replace spark plug ( old plugs known to not spark under pressure ) 3 check crank seals let us know where you get with that also one other thing , disconnect the exhaust and try to start it , sometimes a plugged exhaust can cause this to happen then you would need to read up on bbq mufflers on here |
