Need some advice on a 1986 DS
I just bought it and will start cleaning it up next weekend. It already has a lift kit,rear seat, and a light kit(I will probably have to fix)
Is there anything I should look out for or need to take of first. I know it needs brakes so of course that will come first. Just wondering as far as upgrades. My other cart is a 1989 electric Club car and I went all the way through it. |

I have an '87 and have turned just about every single bolt and screw on it since I got it. Post up some pics!

I have a ton of questions about it, but trying to do a little research on my own to see if I can find the answers. I totally redid my 1989 Electric Club car so this is my next project, it is the one in my avatar. |

Re: Need some advice on a 1986 DS
Here is a few I think I may have to address 1st, keep in mind this cart does run but it just doesn't have brakes.
I noticed the belt is real lose Seems to have a new spring I believe the gasket where the carb mounts to the motor is leaking and I am wondering what is missing where the orange arrow is pointing I will need to lube the cable going from the FnR switch to the tranny i believe... it is stiff as all get out I will also have to buy new exhaust and a new muffler |

The belt is supposed to be very loose at rest, it tightens up when the motor spins.

The belt is supposed to be a little loose, the clutch engages and tightens it up to move.

Lol beat me to it. Doesnt look as much of a carb problem as a oil leak somewhere there.

any Idea what goes to the orange arrow in the pic with the Carb? I noticed another line coming off the bottom of the motor but it was capped off with a screw. How fast are these puppies suppose to run? I think this one might hit 11-12 mph. My electric cart smokes it. It shimmers and shakes when you try and move slowly, is that from have a torque spring installed? |
