Re: 2000 EZGO TXT Gas no power
I noticed in your first post you said your battery exploded ? Have you checked this cart to see if it is overcharging ?? like maybe 18 volts.

Re: 2000 EZGO TXT Gas no power
Absolutely, Trig, i was about to suggest checking the voltage regulator as i have seen an ezgo bog down due to a faulty one drawing way too much current from the starter generator. another obvious thing to check is if the brakes are binding.

Re: 2000 EZGO TXT Gas no power
Thanks everyone. With work, 3 kids, other responsibilities, and trying to get ready for this trip I don't have a lot more spare time to tinker. That said, I didn't troubleshoot the voltage regulator. I instead ordered a brand new one and installed it after work today. I believe that was the last piece of the puzzle. I couldn't have done it without your help.
Recap: Cart had no power at all and would bog down with the smallest load. I replaced the clutches and belt which were an obvious necessity, as visible signs of breakdown were noticeable, but that didn't address the motor issue. Check 3 things if your robinson is having issues and bogging down 1) Make sure the spark plugs are properly gapped so you're not running on 1 cylinder 2) Adjust valves to make sure your getting the best compression (valves aren't stuck open or have too much lash) and 3) voltage regulator. All 3 of these things cost ~$45-$50. 2000 EZGO TXT 4 seater with 22" tires on 6" lift work done to get to proper working order: Drive clutch 28 degree driven clutch Severe duty belt - standard size K&N air filter NGK spark plugs Voltage regulator Valve adjustment |

Just be thankful you were not standing over the battery when it blew.
Glad you got it going. |
