Default 84 gas club car...can't figure out

I have posted on here recently with various issues on my used 84 gas club car. Before I ask my question.....either a local shop or myself has replaced
almost everything relating to this issue except the excitor coil and the rev limiter (which the ground is disconnected and it runs).

That said.....it will start and run fine for 500 yards until it warms up. Then it starts to bog down. At that point, I can turn the key to OFF and it will pick back up and run again for about 200 yards....then turn key back to ON and runs agin 200 yards...and so on and so on.

Knowing that the rev limiter is bad...would this contribute to the problem. Not sure that it would.

I have checked everything I know to check and about ready to shoot this thing. I an going to start checking wires in the wiring harness one by one and see what's good or bad. It seems to me if it was a wiring / grouding problem it would be prevailent at all times...not just when it warms up.

.....and YES I have good fuel and good spark.

Anything else?

I have heard of the rev-limiter grounding internally. You could cut and insulate the black wire leaving the plug that goes to the rev-limiter. If you choose to replace the rev-limiter a new wire and plug comes with it. That would be my best guess.

Not too sure you and I are talking about the same black wire Jimmie. Are you talking about the black/yellow wire (on the left) next to the brown one (looks pink in pic), at the top of this plug? The pair that goes to the rev limiter?

I'm sorry, I must have had a brain fart when I read "84 gas club car", I know absolutely nothing about the kf82 flat head except it has a spark plug on top.

Thanks, I copied it from a pdf of a "1994 DS Golf Car Maintenance and Service Manual", use the pic and enjoy.

OK...replaced the rev limiter and same issue. Going to install a new exciter coil next. Not sure what either one has to do with the off/ on deal in the NEW ignition switch.

Jimmie, can you email me a copy of the maintenance and service manual or tell me where I can find it online so I can print it. I have looked all over and each place want me to pay for it plus shipping? Thanks Judy Feather Hill Farm

I don't know what year you need, but here is an incomplete 1994 and a complete 1997 manual. Hope it helps.
