New to me Yamaha gas cart. Need help finding year, and specs.

[deerslayer1985]

Hello, My wife just bought this cart from her brother today. It doesn't have a title. So we don't know much about it. From what I have figured out it is a Yamaha G2A. I don't know the year or anything else about it. It has a white bench seat, and a white steering column. Thats how I figured out it is a G2A. Is there any other ways to tell what year, and find some specs on this thing. I'd like to do a little tune-up on the engine. It seems to run pretty good, but he has had it for a few years and hasn't really done much with it. So I figured a tune-up would be a good start. We have big plans for this little cart....lol Planning on lifting it, bigger tires, camouflaging the whole cart, rear fold down seat, some racks on front, and top, headlights, radio, and some diamond plate on the floor I think. It seems like it is going to be a fun little project. My Wife, and oldest daughter are into it more than I am I think. So should be a pretty fun. Any info about finding some info on this cart would help out alot. Thanks

Be sure to check out the "stickies" section in the main forums header, that's where this came from:

Welcome Deerslayer! As Flintrock said "stickies" first then read, read and read. The "Lifted Carts" section will be of interest and your welcome in the N.E. Ohio thread in that section. Great group here to provide any info you need. Once again,

I found the primary ID number on the cart, and looked it up on the yamaha golf car lookup page. Here is the number on mine. J55-016982 It doesn't match any of the ones listed. How do I know which year mine is exactly?

If you can get #'s this should help..

Looks like it's an 89'

Close....lol Upon more reading, the numbers posted on yamaha golf car site are the starting number for each year. So Mine should be a 1990. I had the cart out messing around in the snow with it today. It did decent for having smooth tread tires on it, but it got stuck a couple times, and only the passenger side wheel would spin......Is that normal? Also what all would you recommend doing to this cart for a full tune-up?
