Default Putting a G2 Motor in a G1 Cart

Hello All,

This is probably a stupid question, but will a G2 motor drop into a G1 cart. Any help is much appreciated.

No, you can't just "drop" it in.

The G1 is a completely different bird, 2 cycle engine, completely different wiring, and the transaxle does not have reverse, the engine actually runs backwards to obtain reverse.

The G2 is a 4 cycle engine that uses a reverse gear in the trans, only spins counter clockwise.

Now, that doesn't mean you can't do it. But it won't just "drop" in.
