ISO Subaru EX40 Club Car Precedent Throttle Body in Mississippi
Just as the subject says.

Re: ISO Subaru EX40 Club Car Precedent Throttle Body in Mississippi
All I can tell you is the part is $1600 according to Club Car dealers (we have a Carryall with that engine with a bad one/ECU) and from what little I found here about the EX40, it was made for three years and there's a lot of people claiming it eats ECUs/Throttle bodies and is expensive to get parts for. Typical Subaru for you, my first car was a Subaru XT and it was junk junk junk.

Re: ISO Subaru EX40 Club Car Precedent Throttle Body in Mississippi
Subaru didn't make the EFI system.
The engines are near bulletproof, but there is something about small engine EFI systems that just doesn't hold up. And they don't make them to be user servicable, or programmable, not even at the dealer. According to Club Car you can't replace one part, because the ECU, Throttle body, and Fuel injector are matched at the factory, and none of them can be swapped with other parts or the set will not be calibrated properly. I've been looking into other solutions for if/when ours bites the dust. Kawasaki had similar problems with their EFI systems on the Mule. Suzuki and others suffer the same problems. I've read recently about Kohler having some issues with their EFI systems as well, so we'll see how those hold up in the new Club Car engines. |

Re: ISO Subaru EX40 Club Car Precedent Throttle Body in Mississippi
I meant when it comes to anything Subaru in my experience, parts are always super high prices. My XT6 took $2000 just to get a fuel pump, mass air flow sensor and transmission computer.
The guy in my case decided to go the Predator engine route and EOL the Subaru EFI garbage. he wasn't paying $2000+ for parts when he could fix the cart with a $90 engine from harbor freight |

I thought I was told that Subaru sold these engine off to Suzuki? but I could be wrong or fed bad info. The Kohler engine, while still new seems like its going to be a good setup. Its amazing to me that they are injecting engines this small and that they require diag software like cars. Briggs is doin this as well. My push mower will be injected before I know it. Again I was impressed with the Briggs design. The mules, atleast the ones we have at work seem to chew up throttle bodies. I cant count how many we have had replaced under warranty. A few have had the ECU replaced as well but TB's seem to be the common issue. Another crap design and another cart I wouldnt own if given for free. |

Re: ISO Subaru EX40 Club Car Precedent Throttle Body in Mississippi
I've had great service out of all my Subaru's with NO ECU failures or any other EFI related issues. And they are by far more powerful of any of the other gas carts. I haven't gotten my hands on a EFI Kohler yet but I'm sure I will soon.

The ECM on the EFI models can adjust the ignition timing which might mean it uses a different coil, but even so, it’s still a magneto coil. The only other major hurdle would be wiring, and replacing the fuel pump with a low pressure version. |
