G16 requires choke to start/run. How fix?
Hi:
I have a 1999 Yamaha G16, gas, obviously, that requires the use of the choke to not only start but keep running for the first 5 minutes or so, after which the cart runs fine. This occurs even during warm weather. A friend has an early 1990s Club Car that cranks right up when the gas pedal is pushed and runs without the use of the choke. Any remedy? Thanks Pat |

Hi:
Yes, the cart still has the original airbox. Engine is completely stock (unmodified). New airfilter and the box is sealed tight. I read that the valves may need adjusting. |

Well, why not adjust the valves....(.004 in.) "Cold". My first thougt would be to "pull" the Carb and really clean it. Let us know your findings. Dave
