1990 EZGO Marathon stutters when gas pedal is depressed
I have a 1990 Marathon. After riding for about 30 seconds the power stutters on and off. If I release the throttle and depress it again it will accelerate and die stuttering again erratically. I have checked the potentiometer with a multimeter and it reads 0-5300 ohms through the pedal travel. All the connections are clean and tight. I took the motor out and checked the brushes and they are about 75%. I have replaced the solenoid and resistor but the issue was present with the new and old one. I believe the cart has a Curtis controller.
I am out of ideas. Anyone have suggestions on what to do? |

I also checked the micro switch on the throttle and it doesn’t fluctuate when the stuttering happens.

What is the battery pack voltage while stuttering?

Re: 1990 EZGO Marathon stutters when gas pedal is depressed
I’ll hook the multimeter back up and check but the best I could tell when riding around with the seat off was 38.5. I can’t replicate the problem on Jack stands. I bought some clip on test leads today. Batteries are fairly new only about 6 months old
