That’s the stock recommended one, had a shorter one for a while and didn’t like it.

The engine jumped to life, and ran.

It looks like the primary clutch never squeezed together.




EDIT: After watching several more times, that primary clutch is definitely not working. Engine RPMs sound strong.

So if I’m understanding correctly, the clutch should immediately squeeze together, not very slowly and gradually?

Excuse the ignorance, this is my first gas cart, so learning as I go. I can get a longer video if needed

It should be moving at that RPM. You should be able to squeeze it together fairly easily.

Nope. Didn't see that one. In the other one it doesn't move at all.

In the video of it not moving at all, the rear wheels are pinned up against my driveway lip (~1.5”) and just a normal incline.

Guess the jury is still out, ha
