Could be a dead igniter maybe.
There should be a single wire coming from the coil which is the kill wire. Disconnect that so the coil is isolated. Tape if off so it can’t ground on anything and crank the engine over. If you now have consistent spark, then there’s a problem with either the igniter, if it has one, or the kill circuit on the cart.

If it does have a separate igniter, make sure the igniter is hooked to the coil, and that the kill circuit is disconnected from those. Check to see that you have good spark, and that the engine will run. You will have to ground the kill wire manually to get it to shut off.
