Clutch engages at idle
I just put a 16hp Duromax in my Ez-Go Txt golf cart and the engine idles to high. When at idle the clutch is engaged and the cart is already going. NEED HELP!!!

Re: Clutch engages at idle
Adjust the idle down or put a spring in the drive clutch.

Re: Clutch engages at idle
The idle is already adjusted all the way down. How do you change the spring in the clutch?

Re: Clutch engages at idle
You should be able to adjust the idle all the way down to where it kills the engine. If you cant, you have an air leak somewhere in the intake tract or something is holding your throttle open.
To replace the clutch spring, simply remove the clutch, unbolt the side cover and switch out the springs to this one: http://vegascarts.com/webstore/index...oducts_id=1087 |

Re: Clutch engages at idle
Yeah I can make it go all the way down to kill, but even just above it, it still goes. Can you just take any spring as long as it is stronger to replace it?

1 3/16" belt. Everyone else said that is what they are running.

Re: Clutch engages at idle
Yeah, thats stock width...should be good.
I would first check the spring thats in there now and then replace with something stronger. |

Re: Clutch engages at idle
Is there anywhere that I could get a stronger spring that isn't to much?
