New to EZGO, tuneup but can't get full throttle
I recently picked up a 91 Marathon with a 3PG and the thing was a DOG. I am trying to get it tuned up/faster. So far I've:
Checked compression: 160psi HEI upgrade: Installed and works fine Put Seafoam in the gas tank: Still running it through New fuel pump, lines & filter Pulled apart the carb and cleaned / drilled main jet I haven't driven the cart since the updates but it runs well without a belt. The problem: I can't get full throttle - nowhere even close and looking at the setup, I can't see how the pedal armature nor governor pivot would provide enough travel for full throttle. Is this normal? How do I fix this? I am thinking about pulling the throttle cable off the governor all together and rigging up a bracket direct to the carb but would rather keep it simple if possible. Thoughts? |

The throttle cable can be adjusted to obtain full throttle. The factory sets the cable and governor loose to keep the speed down to 12 mph.

Re: New to EZGO, tuneup but can't get full throttle
Adjust them, there is not allot cable travel but you will get full throttle. Tighten the governor spring as well.
