Squeal when step on gas. Replaced drive belt - no help.

I am very new to golf cart repairs. I have a 95 Club Car DS. Many times when I step on the gas, either nothing happens for a few seconds or it squeals loudly, then will go. Once running, it runs perfectly until I stop, then it will squeal again or not go at all for a few seconds. Looking at some forums, it was suggested to change the drive belt, which I did, but no help. I find if I pump the pedal, that often gets me going. I keep seeing threads about Starter belt. Isn't the other belt (not the drive belt) just for the generator and have nothing to do with driving or starting? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
