crank seals

At low rpm, hold the choke at different positions and see if it runs better. If it does I'll say crank seals as well.

The New Guy, Can I replace both crank seals with out removing the engine from the cart? G1

Thanks

Yes, the engine can stay in the cart.

i would agree with crank seals, but i also had a similar problem in one of my g1 carts that turned out to be fuel pump, wasnt sucking enough at low idle but at high idle ran fine. just my $.02
