New 2019 Adventurer lack of power
I just bought a new 2019 and it seems to have a less power that my 2017 Fleet QuieTech. I'm judging this by a hill climb from the lake to the house It's about a 22 degree incline up a paved drive. The 2017 will actually accelerate up the hill, and the new cart seems to lose power for the first 1/2, and then maintains. With 4 people in the cart, it makes it up, but struggles. The 2017 climbs with 4 people at a steady pace. The 2019 just seems sluggish overall. It runs fine, and climbs to top speed, but just seems slower to accelerate and definitely less power climbing the hill.
I've adjusted the governor on the the 17 for a top speed of about 19mph. I've adjusted the governor on the 19 for a top speed of about 17mph. The 2017 has 22" tires and a 3" lift. The 2019 comes stock with a 2" lift and 20" tires and I have not changed it. Is there a "break-in" period where the 2019 will gain power after some time? Should I take back to the dealer because something is wrong? Any help or ideas would be appreciated! Thanks! |

Re: New 2019 Adventurer lack of power
Update - I just finished the Plowman clutch and belt upgrade and an hour with Don - cart is now a different machine! I can't say enough about Don and the time he spent with me and the results when we were done.

Don Plowman is the man when it comes to Yamaha carts! His performance kit made a night and day difference on my '87 G2. Top speed is 25mph with 7" lift and 22" tires. Climbs like a billy goat too!

Re: New 2019 Adventurer lack of power
I just finished the 2017-YTD performance kit upgrade on my 2020 Drive 2 EFI Adventurer 2/2. I’m very happy with the results. Don was disappointed that I could only test speed on a bumpy and couldn’t see full gains. Even so saw 28mph on a couple of my runs. Looking forward to actually seeing it run on asphalt, but won’t be until the summer. Another happy Don Plowman customer.
