Ok, I posted last year before i rebuilt the motor on my 81 ez go. We rebuilt the entire motor. Put it in, new drive clutch and believe it or not.....it has done the same thing. It will not run right. I sent it to a golf cart shop and they said it was the carb. they bought a new oem carb.....not cheap....and i just test drove it with the new carb and it ran the exact same. It will go forward and reverse but it winds up before it takes off slow. when it gets up to speed and i get on a hill it slows way down almost to a stop. It seems that when it gets a load on it it will not run like it is supposed to. I am getting 125 on the compression test. Any suggestions? they are putting my old carb back on since i am not gonna pay for something that does not fix it. thanks.

It could be a clogged muffler. Try running it with the exhaust unhooked and see how it runs.

Greetings...you know what? Sounds like an issue with the governor to me. On the two strokes, the cable adjustments and bellcrank adjustments are fairly critical. The accelerator, governor and oil pump all work in unison and adjusting one affects all the others. They all come together at the carburator, so I would check all the cables and see if that doesn't help...good luck.
