36V EZGO marathon

A buddies 36v marathon after full charge only gives him 2 hours of run time. Is this normal? We checked the pack voltage and it is 39.3v. He does not do any extreme riding just down the road to visit and what have you. He bought the car used and put new batts in taking 1 at a time.

Normal run time is 100 min of actual peddle time.... of course there are lots of variables that will shorten that.

Replacing batteries 1 at a time is real hard on the new ones put into an old pack..

I meant he replaced em all but did it 1 at a time becouse he did not wont to screw up the wirring. but all the batts were replaced at the same time.

Is there anything that can be done to get more run time.
