Motor runs when pedal is pushed but slow to move.
I just did some service on a 97 EZGO that I bought and we got it running. We put on a new air filter, battery, plugs, fuel filter, oil filter, plug wires, and belt. When I push on the throttle, the motor runs fine, it is hesitant to take off. I have a new accelerator cable and have read on how to properly adjust it. Currently the entire rear brake assembly is off so it will not be driven until the parts arrive. Will this help my problem by adjusting the cable correctly or is there more to it? The valves have been adjusted and are set at .004 all the way across. I have a laundry list of parts that I have ordered and some have arrived but still waiting on much more to come. I want this thing to run like it should because it will be used in the trails that are more suited for an ATV, but they aren't allowed. Any information that could help me make this thing run better and be more responsive is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Jordan |

Re: Motor runs when pedal is pushed but slow to move.
Have you checked compression? If so what is it on each cyl.?

Re: Motor runs when pedal is pushed but slow to move.
Compression was 135 and 125 before the valves were adjusted. The motor stays running the entire time and never cuts out or misses when the pedal is pushed, it just doesn't take off for a bit. Its almost as if you can push the pedal to a point and make the motor just idle.
