I have a 1993 club car with 6 deka brand 6 volt batterys in it, they are 650cca each...each one has 6.1 volts when I put a meter on them, is that enough? how do I know if the batterys are any good? the cart is extremely slow, and dies after just a few minutes of operating.

They have less than 50% charge.
Fully charge the batteries, rest for an hour and take another reading.
Run the cart and take another reading after it dies.

Here is a state of charge chart for you to gauge your batteries.

so once I get them all to 6.37 about how long should they last with running the cart?
How do I know if they are good or not?

alright, thanks for the info...The other question is, is it ok to use a 6/12volt car charger on the 6 volt setting and charge the batterys individually?

Yes and you can also use it on 12v and charge 2 at a time. You don't need to disconnect the pack, in the series run of batteries just charge battery 1&2, then 3&4, then 5&6.
