Re: 81 EZgo power and other questions.
Bob-o
I agree with you. 2 cycle carts are out. Parts are hard to get or discontinued. Any money spent on them is for enjoyment only. Put $3,000.00 in a rice burner and you still have a cart worth $400.00. Better to count your future costs and buy a BUILT late model cart that won't nickel / dime / Ben Franklin ($100.00) you to the cleaners. My 2 cents respectfully submitted! |

Re: 81 EZgo power and other questions.
$500 for a 4 cycle?
I would be affraid of the car.... what all is wrong with it? A '91 4 cycle in good shape is still worth somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,200. Perhaps you made a better deal than you though? Mike, It looks like you and I are on the same page . I just would like to add (for clarity) that I do like the 2 cycle cars, and I think they are very well built. I tend to view them as buying a blue chip stock, its a huge risk that can have a fun ride but a bad ending |

Re: 81 EZgo power and other questions.
LOL....
Oh, Oh... you may like this Two weeks ago, Dad took all of us out to Dinner at the Outback Steakhouse and he paid for the whole thing from all of the recycle money from coke cans, aluminum engine parts, and about 13 junker Marathons and 4 (ish) GX-444s .... and I am assuming that wasn't a cheap dinner That was the whole reason we went out.... you know, to thank us for drinking all those cokes |

Re: 81 EZgo power and other questions.
I'm concerened as a site sponsor that VERY FEW on here know and understand how much a decent cart should really cost? It seems that other than a handful of regulars that most people think $500.00 is a wise purchase and the rest of the parts can be bought from the lowest bidder?

Anyway, Thats my take on the situation or at least a part of it. lots of the people on the forum are true do-it-yourself types and thats another reason they do this, it gives them something to do. |

Mike, I'm sure you know and understand what I mean when I say that a $500 TXT or Medalist is a peice of JUNK I'll work on anything I'm told to (gotta pay my flight training loan ), but even a $500 car is something I can't work on.... there is nothing there TO work on |
