Starting issue Club car Spark or gas issue?

[caterpillar950]

Morning guys, I have been having issues with my 96 club car fe 290, at first was gas issue replaced carb fuel pump all hoses cleaned tank, air filter replaced, then a spark issue, put new coil-IGNitor on didn't work, it was a brand new bad part, I ended up cleaning fly-wheel and old coil and have great spark now......I think, my new issue is either spark or fuel, she will start and run but is sluggish to start and sometimes have to pump peddle several times and she may backfire then start. I also installed new battery and cleaned all wires. any help is appreciated what do you guys think, I also tried to fool with the carb screw some not sure if I messed it up or how that should be set. Thanks guys.

If any of the parts you replaced are aftermarket parts, switch them back to OEM.

I'm sure it didn't need a carburetor or fuel pump, those are very rare to ever fail. So if those are aftermarket parts, put the originals back on.

You said you changed the coil and it was no good right out of the box, so that's a really good chance you bought a aftermarket coil.

Pumping the pedal really does nothing on a golf cart.

Buy a cheap spark tester, hook it up and when the cart has an issue see what the spark is doing, that will tell you spark or fuel.
