hit pedal and somtimes starter doesnt spin
have a 2011 ezgo gas and sometimes when i hit the gas pedal you can hear the start like it wants to spin over but just makes a whine noise. if you let off the gas and then rehit the gas most the time it will then turn the starter over and start right up. every now and then i have to hit the pedal a few times before it will turn the start to start the cart what cuases this?

Re: hit pedal and somtimes starter doesnt spin
Most often it's a grounding issue. Check all of your grounds most important the one from the battery to the engine. Sounds like a high AMP draw trying to find ground.

Jack a rear wheel up off the ground and remove the seat... push the gas with your hand and watch the starter pulley, likely the pulley is spinning but not turning the belt. Loosen the 3/4 nut and bolt under the starter & adjust the belt tension with the the starter tension adjuster located between the starter and motor on the driver's side... re-Tighten the starter mount bolt.

Re: hit pedal and somtimes starter doesnt spin
I am agreeing with scotty. since its a new cart the belt has stretched alittle and the belt is slipping. Very common.
