Is the cart actually running or is it turning over and not firing? If it is running there will be a problem in the clutch itself.

Welcome to BGW Dreed As Rebel stated in his post; Is the motor actually running or is it just spinning over on the starter ? We are all here to help you get up and running but some additional information would help.

how did you clean the carb? did you take it off and tear it down and really go at it? if not it will start acting up again in a week or so.............................

If you had trash in the carb and in the tank chances are there is some in the fuel pump as well. No prob on the help. That is why we are all here, to have fun w/ our buggies.
