Newbie with 88 EZGO
Hey yall, just bought me a new to me 88 EZGO.
Lifted and runs great. Little weak, but a nice cart. I am pretty raw to the golf carting, what can you tell me about my purchase? has the 244cc Robins in it. |

Re: Newbie with 88 EZGO
Has a new carb on it. I could not find a governor, think it may have got taken off when the carb was replaced, but doesn't seem to have power or tendency to overrev when at WOT like the governor is off?
also noticed with the new carb, the air filter does not fit as from factory. It has been modded to fit a filter that will line up with the carb. Should I be worried? runs great. Just wish it was more powerful up hills |

Re: Newbie with 88 EZGO
I will get a pic of the engine and post, hopefully tonight but may be tomorrow. How is that Robin engine? Seems a little on the weak side. My dad has an old Harley 3 wheeler that seems quicker and faster.

Re: Newbie with 88 EZGO
Here are a couple pics of the engine bay. Notice the different style air filter.......is that due to a carb that may not be the right one?

The Gov cable is still attached to the carb, but may have been removed from the driven clutch, the white plastic cap on the right in the photo. Look for the lever arm that pulls the throttle back. |

Re: Newbie with 88 EZGO
Good looking cart! The air cleaner canister is missing, like said earlier. Just from the pictures you may want to change the fuel filters and check the fuel line for cracks.
