1986 EZGO Marathon Resistor Coil Question
Hey guys! Got a few questions regarding my rebuild of my 1986 Marathon.
I need a new resistor coil. Mine is broken in 3 spots. My stock resistor coil is this one CLICK HERE . I am fairly certain it's the original one. My question is can I go with something like this CLICK HERE instead? This one seems MUCH more sturdy and more "fixable" as the coil breaks into 3 spots and on top of that like $80 cheaper. I would obviously need to construct a housing for it but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks! |

Here are the pics attached in the thread. What's the difference between these 2 resistors?
Thanks, Paul |

Re: 1986 EZGO Marathon Resistor Coil Question
My 84 has a coil that looks exactly like the second one. I think you have just found the earlier coil. It is a low maintenance item; I replaced mine when I got the cart 16 years ago and am still using it.
The only question is whether or not we have the same motor. Is it perpendicular to the axle? |
