gas club car still runs when pedal is not pushed
2000 club car gas engine runs fine but wont die when I let off the pedal. It seems like it has something to do with the govner. Any ideas?

Re: gas club car still runs when pedal is not pushed
I replaced all the micro switches and the cart still wants to slowly run when the gas pedal is released. Could it be the butterfly valve on the carb not closing all the way? any help would be appreciated.

Re: gas club car still runs when pedal is not pushed
is the pedal adjusted properly, and the cable coming out of the black box to governor. sounds like the cable is too tight (no enough to fully release the accelerator)
i know when i was adjusting my pedal linkage from pedal to black box if i put it too tight the car would seem to idle, after adjusting it would shut of when pedal released. |

Re: gas club car still runs when pedal is not pushed
I will check that tonite but the butterfly valve seems to have some play in it and it also sticks sometimes. Thanks for the help I will do a little more investigating tonite.

Re: gas club car still runs when pedal is not pushed
Adjusting some slack in the cable in the black box definitely helped but it still kinda trys to keep running if I have been putting around very slow and then let off the throttle. maybe I need to add some more slack to the cable coming outa the black box. I also cleaned the carb to see if I could get the butterfly valve to work more smoothly.

No I haven't adjusted that yet, but I will tonight. Adjusting the cable going to the black box helped now I just need to fine tune. Thanks for the help.

Re: gas club car still runs when pedal is not pushed
the linkage activates the micro switch that activates the starter, so you want to make sure it is NOT idling the starter

Re: gas club car still runs when pedal is not pushed
Is there “floppy” play in the gas pedal itself? When the pivot rod the pedal connects to gets worn at the bushings, it will affect the travel of the linkage.
