Re: New to me 85 ezgo gas
Does it Fire on Starting-Fluid?Does it start in Reverse?If so,the crank-seals are weak and leaking,Replace the seals and you are set.

Re: New to me 85 ezgo gas
ok i will order the crankcase seals, but I have one question. Doesnt the fuel pump run off lower crank case pressure? I have a good spurt of gas coming from the pump. And yes it does start on starting fluid.

Re: New to me 85 ezgo gas
Is the carb in good condition inside?You need to remove the jets,needle,etc...clean the jets with a torch-tip cleaner,and spray out everything with carb-cleaner.Do this before tearing into crank-seals.Then make sure the throttle and choke cables are adjusted and working correctly.Make sure the fuel is New..If its' over 2-months old,drain it and get new gas.(This Crap they are selling has a 3-month shelf-life tops)It should run.

Re: New to me 85 ezgo gas
Cleaned the carb today and it runs great. Drove it around for about 10 min, good speed with 2 of us in the cart. Now i have a new problem, when starting the cart the clutch is engaging whit the starter. So when starting it, the starter has the weight of the cart and the belt sqeals. i can get it to start with just me on it and down hill. Any ideas?
