Welcome to Cartaholics.

Start with a compression test. These engines run in both directions and can lose compression in one direction (usually forward) because its used more in that rotation.

i just bought the cart like this from a friend last week he couldn't figure it out, he put the new carb,reeds and the micro switch on it, he believes that the crank seal is bad and that is what is making it run bad in forward!
