New to me 1987 ezgo cart
So I recently bought a 1987 ezgo golf cart off of a facebook page for only 300 dollars I drove a hr to pick it up the guy told me all it needs is a battery I used his boat battery to drive it onto the trailer. So I went out a pond bought a tractor battery the guy told me the motor was rebuilt before he parked it last yr. so after I hooked up the battery and was ready to go for a cruise it smoked as it was 3 oz of oil to gas but soon realized something wasn't right it wouldn't go faster the walking speed all suggestions would be appreciated

Re: New to me 1987 ezgo cart
Since it was rebuilt before being parked, the first thing to do is remove the exhaust pipe, and look to see if the piston is in backwards.
Move it up and down. If you see a square hole in the side of the piston through the exhaust port, it is in backwards. If it is in right, then you have to hope that the rings are not upside down, and that the rings are aligned with the pins correctly. There should be no side to side slop on the piston. |
