oil light Club car
well i ran my cart hard today trying to get a top speed and the oil light came on, when i slowed down it would go off. I checked the oil and it is full. This is a club car non lifted i have the gov un hooked and i am sure i was turning the motor to hard but i have done it before with no problem. I do not do this often and only for short bursts i figured it would be ok. any ideas

You need a Big Block if your are going to try to accomplish any kind of top speed.

put a tach on it... in maintenance mode, and adjust you're govenor so it won't go over 4300 RPM's and it probably won't light up on you anymore! And besides...you might get some serious engine damage if you continue to run it that fast! my 2 cents |

Re: oil light Club car
Drop to a lighter grade oil or synthetic 10-30 or 5-20 problem will be gone.
