Welcome Preacherman, Here's a link I found on this forum for a Manual. It's a really great place to start. Good luck http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/ezgo-...iagram-id.html

If you have a crack in the engine block, something is very wrong. Sounds like you need to tear it down and have a look.

With a hole in the engine block, you appartently have serious engine damage. The hole in the block alone either puts you in a position to have it welded shut or another engine block. Either way, you gotta pull it out to find out what came apart and see what all it damaged. Nobody will give you anything on that core if it is damaged that badly.
