Does fuel level in the tank make a difference? Cracked pick up tube?

I tried reving the motor in neutral it didnt help the drivin clutch is moving fine the motor just wont turn enuogh rpms under a load to fully engage the belt

If you can make it work once in a while, it has the ability. Seems like a linkage, or butterfly problem to me.

What happens if you come to a complete stop, and then try climbing the hill?



EDIT: Spitting fuel is never a good thing.

Coming to a coplete stop is the only way to get it to go up the hill but it doesnt work every time as far as likage is concerned it appears to be workin alright but i dont know much about it so might not know what im lookin at

Have you ever tried to climb a hill with a dirt bike, and forget to downshift? It's in too high of a gear and bogs down.

I think you might be having the same problem. I'm not sure how these newer carts work, but you might want to check the rear end, and clutches.

Could be your driven clutch is having issues and not down shifting per se. That clutch should constantly be trying to close and if it is having problems doing that due to a bad spring or ramp issues it will not.

I just had one that was bogging down. The generator was the culprit. The bad V/R was allowing the generator to overcharge. The engine was having to work too hard against it. Check your running voltage or unplug your regulator and see if it helps. It took me 2 weeks to find it and almost cost me my sanity.

It sounds like the drive clutch, meaning the clutch on the engine, not the clutch for the rear end. Sometimes the clutch get grooves on it and the belt won't slide correctly.
