Default Re: 4 stroke HEI Conversion

Just to report back, the HEI & GM coil conversion was not a success on my 295cc 4 stroke. Like many others who tried this, it appeared to work great, until the road test. The cart cranks and runs 100% better with the HEI setup, but doesn't perform on high end. It runs rough and lacks power when under a load. It's almost as if there's a timing issue. I was really hoping this would work. Guess I'll fork out the cash for the stock ignitor.

Just did the HEI conversion with the schematic from page 2. Had trouble until I realized the white and red wires that attached to the stock coil were still being run off of the stock igniter. Switched with the red/white and black wires coming from the pulsar, and it fired right up and lurched forward in my garage. Road tested and runs 100% smoother. Thanks a bunch for the post!

I know this is over a year old, but no one has determined if this actually works or not. Last post stated this worked, but no one else responded. I have tried 3 igniters from Buggies unlimited and all 3 have failed to perform. I am in need of an igniter and I was reading through all of the forum write ups on the 4 stroke engines and have yet to be convinced if this is the way to go. Can someone enlighten me on this?

Are you sure your ignitor is the issue?


IF so, That's your problem right there. Get an OEM ignitor and stop buying the aftermarket junk. Those Nivel igniters aren't worth the box they're shipped in.

Every where I check they only have the junk, for say items and not the OEM ones. So, where can one get the OEM one?

I just go to my local dealer. They've always been great to me in the past, and I haven't found anywhere online that carries OEM ez-go parts.

I believe I remember seeing somewhere back that revolution golf cars (site sponser) was able to get some ez-go parts, but I cannot confirm. I'd call him and ask, and if not just call your closest local dealer.

Can you use the stock coil with the HEI?

We haven't gotten long term follow up on HEI conversions actually working, so, I would say no. Maybe one day someone will get one to work and post the list of parts needed to make it work. The only one I am aware of was Fast Fred's supercharged TXT, but that used the MSD HEI ignition and cost a ton of money.
