Re: G2/G9 acceleration questions..
Mine will slow right down and stop, and still be idling. In fact when it starts to creep at idle I know its time for a shot of grease in the clutch.

Re: G2/G9 acceleration questions..
I'm thinking my belts maybe to tight. The starter will roll the cart so I cant just sit and idle, but then again the drive and starter belts are brand new

If your clutch is dirty/dry you can pull the clutch out, jump on cart and see if it drags on the starter. If it does not then, lube the clutch up that should help (with a broke in belt). I set the tensioner with a GPS, it worked perfectly. The tighter it is the better takeoff under load but then you lose top speed. So I found a little steep hill and floored it from a dead stop to see how high it would rev, then went down a flat drive to top speed with the GPS. I tightened it until I lost speed, then blacked it off a little. It still would rev after a couple seconds on the steep hill and walk right up it, it would rev faster with it tighter but who wants to lose top speed lol. It does 28 on dirt and 26 with it too tight, it does 28 with the tensioner very loose so pretty sure it will not shift out all the way with belt too tight. |

Re: G2/G9 acceleration questions..
Try these couple of small adjustments like Sho suggested. I know they made a world of difference on my cart and let us know how it does

Re: G2/G9 acceleration questions..
I lifted this cart myself in '99. There was nothing, so I started screwing with things to see what would help. I moved a 19' FG boat with a V8 I/O after tinkering around with it. It has been good for a long time but last few years engine getting weak. Ran the snot out of it this whole time with no governor or rev limit, and synthetic oil. Still does not burn a drop but does not have the power it did, only when cold it still runs nice. You get a 10% drop in power then the clutches work differently, not as well. I've been very happy with it, and more to come if I eevveeerrr get the clone in it. This summer not going as planned!
