Sorry for my abbreviation when I said 2cycl I meant 2 cylinder. It is most definitely a 4 stroke. The dip stick for the main sump is on the passenger side of the vehicle, toward the front of the engine.

Also the oil filter, is on the opposite side at the bottom ( a triangular plate) it can be removed by 3 small bolts. Note this filter is cleanable, in petrol (gas) or similar solvent, and needn't be replaced annually. Replace only you see necessary, maybe every 5 years or so. Great motor, just check the cam belt, mine was surprisingly worn worn after just 650 hours, worth replacing as belt is only $12, and a top end rebuild would cost hundreds, if not a thousand bucks!

I am sure relieved to find out it is a 4 stroke I remember from my younger years the hassle of a 2 stroke. Got a chance to drive it a little bit. Found it running kinda funky and smoking quite a bit from time to time. Pulled the plugs and gave them a good cleaning. Checked the oil level and had to drain about 1/2 a quart of oil. Running much better now. Plenty of power. I will try the governer adjust in a day or two. I will do some thorough maint. after the holidays. Another reason I'm glad it is a 4 stroke is I want to keep it running not start every time you step on the gas. I know there is a thread on here somewhere that I read that explained how to do it. In the mean time thanks for the help and comments. Oh, and essness, I had already found the ez go tech tips, thanks. I am very glad I found this forum, I had looked at and joined a few when we got our first cart a couple of months ago but BGW, by far has the best information and doesn't have the bickering I have seen on others. Maybe one day I will have answers instead of questions for the members. Keep Kartin.
