Speeding Up an '05
I have read many posts on here and still need assistance on the best way to speed up an FE290. I want to try the zip tie trick, and disconnect the limiter on the front of the engine. I have looked but guess I am not looking correctly at the engine.. Does anyone have any pictures of where to disconnect the wire from the limiter?
I have also sent my clutches to TOM and had them machined and new spring on the driven clutch. Not sure if they installed a new spring on the drive clutch. |

Re: Speeding Up an '05
on eier side of the limiter is a ground wire that has a lug on it. remove the nut with a 10mm socket and pull off lug. replace nut with socket and tape end and zip tie so not to rub any bare metal or get got up. thats what i was told to do with my 350, no problems yet!

Re: Speeding Up an '05
The cart seems to have some more torque to it when climbing ditches. I do not know if the 200 rpm spring was installed in the drive clutch. I just did the tie wire trick to speed up the cart and it is running around 3900 - 4000 rpm. Will use my gps to get the mph tomorrow.

Re: Speeding Up an '05
After getting all things done, the cart will run between 23 - 28 mph. Put Royal Purple 10w-20 and that took care of the oil light coming on. But I am still not happy with it's climbing capabilities........................
