Help w/replacement drive/clutch belt for 1986 Yami,G1,2cycle gas

[Ms.Independent]

Good afternoon to All members of the forum!
I purchased a"used" 1986 Yamaha G1,2cycle gas golf cart last year and have basically had the entire motor rebuilt. The bottom had been done upon purchase, but shortly after, I had to push it home when I had taken it down the road for the 1st time,after having it diagnosed I was told that the top part needed to be rebuilt, so I got all the parts & had that done. It seemed to run much better,Thankfully. The motor in it has been modified to take mixed fuel instead of adding gas & oil separately,which isn't a big deal,but this year after the1st couple short drives in it(it's running well),its taking a long period of time to"catcj"in order to move in forward or reverse. I'm assuming it's the drive belt needing replaced, since all the other components have been rebuilt, as well as having a new battery this week.
Which drive belt is the best for this particular cart? Does it make a difference, since the gas&oil have to be premixed before adding fuel?
Any help is GREATLY appreciated! Thanks in advance! 😊

J17-46241-00 is the Yamaha part number. Will not need a different belt due to premix oil. I don't suggest going with any cheapo belts, they are not as good quality.

This is what you should see, with the number printed on the belt. Anything else isn't genuine.

That's the part I ordered,received&fairly quickly. I was able to install it myself, Thankfully,and save money, not having to pay a shop or someone to do it for me. 😊
