How deep of water before I have cart failure?
My ranch is rather wet right now.
I have atv's, but prefer to cruise around on the cart. 6" lift and 22" tires. Does flooding the connections to the motor cause failure? I know I don't own a submarine, but not sure how far I can push it. |

A good indicator would be a buzzing sound followed by a sudden lack of motion!!!Us Gasser-Guys use the belt-slippage as a guide!!

Anything up to the motor is too much. They are not sealed and if water gets inside, it will do a number on the brush holders and you will soon have motor failure.
