1995 Club Car Carryall 1 CARB ISSUE?

[Alby]

Cart was running fine 4 weeks ago. Went to go use it and it barely runs, acts like its starving for fuel. Pulled carb. cleaned jets, float needle seats fine. There were some small particles in gas tank but filter would catch them. Fuel pump working as it was. Compression is 152 before anyone asks LOL. It ran good for 3 minutes after cleaning carb and went back to barely running. Been messing with it for 4 hours and am at a loss!!!! It did this one time before, but there was crap in the jets, however there isnt anything this time. Any advice??? Thanks

Are you actually getting fuel to the carb from the pump?

[Alby]

Yes I am getting fuel to carb. I forgot to add I pulled the spark plug and was pretty black and not wet. Cleaned it an re installed but no change.

Check for spark. Does it run with spray? If you are getting fuel to the carb and you know you have good fire then your issue may be the carb. How is your gas? Old, new? A dirty plug is also a sign of good fire and bad gas.

The engine starts right up however when you get on it to go full speed it will not. it is bogging down. Gas is not old but who knows, could have gotten condensation in tank. Ill drain fuel and add. I'm just stumped! Was running fine before i parked it for a month!!!

Check the carb vent tube or if it is gone the carb vent nipple for mud dobber

[Alby]

Problem solved!!! The pick up tube in gas tank had a crack in it. Was no fun to fix. Got her running like a champ-for now!!!! Thanks guys

Here we go again!!! I am at a loss. Cart ran for a week and then stopped again. I put a new carb on it too. Now where do I check? i haven't replace fuel pump yet. Any help would be appreciated before I start it on fire! LOL

Pull the fuel line from the carb and spin it over, if it flows fuel then you have a carb problem, What carb did you put on it? The interweb carbs for $25 are junk and you really need to stick with your OEM if possible.
If no fuel, then check your pulse line from the block, Make sure it has no cracks or sags, sagging pulse line will collect oil and shut down the pump.
If you want to check your fuel pick up tube repair, fill the tank all the way up and see how long it runs.

Have you adjusted valves?

[Alby]

No gas coming from fuel pump to carb. Line coming from block is same place it was when it was running fine. I have not messed with valves because engine was running fine before.
