Default Cart jerks in forward and reverse 83 marathon

So I have replaced all battery cables, and one by noticed the other cables were in terrible shape. I have made all new cables with high strand four gauge wire, silver solder, with heat shrink, and four gauge lugs. After installing, and double checking all wiring and connections( all are correct), when I put the cart in forward(or reverse)and touch the accelerator the cart lunges, or jumps . It almost like all the voltage hits at once, I did take it for a drive and the drive ability has not changed, just the immediate starting in either direction. Any ideas on where to start? Thanks in advance!

I will venture a guess that the cables to the V glide are not in the correct location.

Thanks for your response

I did go one by one, but I could assume they were in the wrong location to begin with.
Is there a trusted wiring diagram for this style?

so this is the closest one I found, BUT the motor is not set up this way. the terminals on my motor are "straight across the top", and also remember none of the labels were present on wiring, an or motor. The V-glide on my cart has five terminals with the top one not being used, not trying to sound ignorant, I just want to be sure I get this corrected.

The outer studs on motor are A1 & A2 and the inner ones are S1 & S2.

Here are service and parts manuals for your cart.
