Happen at low speed, high speed, doesn't matter? RPM limiter still connected?

Do you have a spark tester? If not you can pick up an inexpensive one at Harbor Freight or most Auto Parts stores. Need to see if it's an issue of losing spark or something else. Since you say it seems fine in maintenance mode, try putting the rear up on jack stands and run it in gear. See if it has that surging with turning the wheels or just under the load of actually moving you and the cart.
