A fix for low power on 93 295 FINALLY!
I have a 93 GXI804. I rebuilt the engine about a year ago and all was well.
Once I started pimping this ride I started to notice a little loss of power here and there. Well, after all sorts of mods from HEI ignition to shorter belt and "tweaking" clutch springs I was disgusted. I had other carts with two people passing me going up hills with just me on the cart. So today I was DETERMINED to fix this thing or burn it. After much looking, running the engine and watching the clutches I noticed that pressing the accelerator pedal didn't move the carburetor butyerfly shaft much at all. It took the engine a while to Rev up to top speed. I found that shortening the linkage that runs from the back of engine to the front by just a couple rounds that the butterfly shaft moved MUCH farther. Now when I step on the gas I get a nice, quick response and plenty of power. So with a freshly cleaned Carb, a new HEI ignition, tweaked clutch springs and a 1" shorter belt, I'm back to being the King Cart again. I can climb any hill I want to climb and still run down the road like a striped a$$ ape!! My grandson said, after our last test ride of the evening, "PaPa you ROCK" |

Well I am glad that fixed yours. I put a new carb on a while back and confirmed the butterfly opens fully when the pedal is on the floor. Im looking for a drive clutch for mine next to fix the power issues.

I hope this might help some of you who've been searching for that elusive "power loss" fix.
May not work for every one, but that one little adjustment gave me the cart I've always known this one could be. |
