Tuning the carb - 92 Club Car

[steveclv]

I am completely new to the world of Golf Carts but like tinkering with old stuff so just bought a 1992 Club Car that I think has a 4 stroke motor - haven't really looked too deeply yet.

I need to tune the carb as the engine will not run full throttle - if I tickle the gas pedal then I can get it to move at about 5mph - on a hill as I depress the gas pedal it just dies and it runs as though the mixture is far too lean - may be an air leak or just a weak mixture.

I'm trying to source a workshop manual, printed or download, but in the meantime can someone give me some basic settings and where the adjustments are?

Thanks

Welcome to to the forum...

It sounds like you may have some dirt in the carburetor. Also make sure the air filter box is sealed completely.

Another thing you can check is the valve lash. Here's a thread that will help you with adjusting the valves...
