Re: My G2 AKA "The Donkey"
I went to start my cart the other day but it wouldn't start. Didn't take me long to diagnose the Polaris fuel pump was shot. Life has taken a turn for me lately as my other thread states. On top of it all mg cousin and his wife and daughter moved in with us. While moving I came across a Mr gasket micro fuel pump rated at 3-4 psi sitting in a garbage pile. I snagged it popped the hood and touch the wires to the battery and it buzzed and sounded great. Brought it home and today got a chance to install it. Works perfect doesn't push too much and the float causes it to kick off at the right time. Fired up my cart and the engine moved way too much. The rubber on the front motor mount ripped out completely. I have a spare I'll swap tomorrow and I'm going to build a strap to limit how much the engine moves. Apparently the G2 rubber isn't made to handle the Polaris's power especially after almost 25 years. Also found I had a torn valve stem but that was replaced easily enough. Felt good to be working in the garage again for the first time in way too long. One good thing about the front mount being ripped apart is it made swapping to a shorter belt easier lol. It runs better then ever now that its getting proper fuel to go with the open air filter and super trap muffler I've been running. After I get the motor locked down I'm going to tear it up around the yard to see what proper fuel and a proper length belt will do. Then I can finally swap in the spare rear diff I've welded up. It sees basically 0 road so its going to be worth it to me. And if not I'll swap back to the open diff. Then it'll be time for paint and then FINALLY lifting our dang limo cart.

Re: My G2 AKA "The Donkey"
I happened to find a spare 38mm mikuni carb sitting around. It'd been cannibalized for parts before bit I took my 34 off my engine in the cart and put the secondary jet in mg carb from the 38. Holy crap what a difference. Tapped the throttle from 1/8 (just cruising) to almost 1/2 making a turn around one of the out buildings and ended up facing the wrong way with my cousin and I laughing like idiots. It still has a small oil leak to track down but its small so I'll just keep checking it for now. Fires up so quick with no choke and now finally pulls strong to 7k. 7k rpm with stock gearing and 24" tires is fast enough for me. Thanks to the upgraded spring in the driven clutch it pulls like a train at any rpm. I'm very very pleased. Now its time to swap in the diff I welded up over the winter then time for paint.

Re: My G2 AKA "The Donkey"
Thanks. I just wish my buddy had the camera rolling when I climbed another hill and ended up doing a 30 yard wheelie.
