I your brake cable is HOT and is melting. Check your grounds!
The starter should be grounded to the motor and the frame. I've never seen this on a golf cart, but on another piece of equipment the choke cable got HOT. It had become an unstable ground and power was heating it up. We installed proper grounds and the problem dissappeared.
The muffler could be plugged as well, but prerformance is usually compromised.
HOPE? this helps. tony
