Re: Hard starting
Why would you take it to a dealer when you can easily adjust the valves yourself? Look thru this post and decide if you wanna fork out $$$$ for the job. http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/ezgo-...djustment.html
Good Luck! |

Re: Hard starting
Yes, they are reusable. If you get in it and have questions take a break and jump on the keyboard. After you do it you will think, "piece of cake!"
The money you save could buy us a beer! |

Re: Hard starting
Glad to hear it worked out for you and you took the plunge and found out it's not all that hard.
Just keep in mind that many of these valves were not hardened all the way and only had a hardened coating on them. If you find you're having to adjust them often i would recomend getting the valves replaced with ones that are fully hardened. |
