speed control?

[dropnbombs]

i got a 95 ezgo and i wanna know if theres any sort of speed govener or some thing that resists the speed on the carts so it doesnt go faster or no?/

if so how can i take it off and what does it look like??

[gornoman]

Does the cart free-wheel down a long grade?

[dropnbombs]

idk what you just said..im new to the cart world...

[dropnbombs]

do you mean that when i floor it it goes to speed then stays steady??

[gornoman]

No, I mean when you point the cart downhill does it gain speed because of gravity? If the motor starts slowing the cart down on a downhill grade you have a regenerative system that cannot be bypassed without at least a controller upgrade.

1995 I think is pre regenerative .... it is a series cart. No, no silver bullet here You will have to upgrade the controller and/or motor for more speed

[dropnbombs]

**** and that equals more money... does anyone have a controller cheap..?

You might find a used one in the classifed section but usually to get a new high amp speed controller it is usually about $400. The cart pictured in my avatar is a 95 Metalist (now has a later TXT body to replaced the badly dented Metalist body). But I wanted more speed and put a 4hp GE motor (still $400) on mine (only mod) which really picked it up. Ran like this for 2.5 years. Finally the 14 year old speed controller kick the bucket. Then I added new batteries 400-500 amp Ge speed controller and 4 ga cable. As you see my cart is not lifted. My cart will do 20mph and pull race cars at the drag strip with no effort.
