Re: 2000 Club Car Carryall2 gas wiring advice needed
Right, these starters are series motors so all of the current that goes through the starter goes through all 4 connections. If any single one of them is crusty or corroded none of it will work.
To add to that, the same current also has to flow from B+ through both solenoid posts, all 4 posts on the starter, the ground point for the starter cable at the frame, the frame ground point for the battery - cable, and the B- terminal on the battery. So there are 10 different connections and 5 different cables that need to all be in good condition for the starter motor to get the maximum amount of power. If any of those connections or cables are dodgy, starter says NO. |

Re: 2000 Club Car Carryall2 gas wiring advice needed
I cleaned ALL points of contact and replaced a couple sketchy cables. Helped a little, or at least my optimism kicked in and said so. Still has the hard spot.
I'll bench the starter and see what's doing in there. Is the starter pulley way too small? The starter pulley is just under 2 3/4 inches, the clutch pulley is 6 1/4. CP241, that is the funniest **** avatar. I'm going to figure out how to print it and put it over my workbench. Watch out for Reddy Killowatt, That @#%*er will kill ya!! |

Re: 2000 Club Car Carryall2 gas wiring advice needed
Can't give you any advice on the starter pulley, but, your clutch belt is way to lose.
You should not be able to press down on the clutch belt and make it mover more than a inch. Richard |

Both belts are worn out, and from the little bit I can see in the pic the primary clutch is worn out too. |

May be a good time to just go through everything on the cart and bring it all up to snuff. Then shouldn’t have to worry about any of it for a very long time. |

Re: 2000 Club Car Carryall2 gas wiring advice needed
Oh yeah, I know the belts are done. I'm replacing all belts and hoses. I figured if the starter pulley needs resizing I'll do that before replacing the belt.
I hadn't thought of rebuilding the clutches. Haven't done that before but I imagine I can search the site and find what I need to do it. By the way, I think I found the hard start problem. While everything was hooked back up and I was cranking and testing, I found the cable from B+ to solenoid gets real warm. Replacing that today. |

Re: 2000 Club Car Carryall2 gas wiring advice needed
The starter pulley is probably worn out, although it's hard to tell without seeing it. When you remove the belt look in the groove of the pulley and see if there's a step worn into it. The sides should be smooth all the way down to the base of the pulley. If the sides go down and then there's a step inwards towards the bottom then it should be replaced.
There's pretty much only one size pulley that goes on the starter, the pulley on the back of the clutch can be several different sizes, but the one that's on it right now is fine. The belt is probably the main issue. See how the belt sits up higher than the edge of the pulley. That is because it is wider than the pulley, and doesn't fit correctly in the pulley groove. That's an aftermarket belt that is not the correct size. I would guess the starter pulley is worn out and probably should be replaced, a new OEM belt will fit correctly. |

Re: 2000 Club Car Carryall2 gas wiring advice needed
IMO rebuilding the clutches isn’t worth it if the sheaves are worn. Better to just replace them. I’ve had good luck with the cheap aftermarket ones, haven’t had any issues with the ones on any of the carts I’ve used them on.

Re: 2000 Club Car Carryall2 gas wiring advice needed
Hard to believe that from viewing this one photo, you can tell that the clutches are shot and need replacement. And that the starter belt is shot as well as the starter pulley.
You guys have such an imagination. Yes the clutch looks like it needs to be cleaned up, but to say it's shot is hard to believe. Further more, I have looked around on the shop manuals and it appears that there is NO adjustment for the clutch shaft to shaft distance. So a new belt may help, but also there maybe some adjustment in the driven clutch to allow the belt to be higher in the clutch. And there are not several rules for CVT clutch belt slack. With the belt that loose, when the engine is reved up. the drive clutch will appear to start the movement in what would be considered second gear in a manual transmission. If starting movement on an up hill trail, the cart will really struggle to get going with the belt that loose. Richard |
