Default G-1 troubles

my g-1 a-3 golf cart motor runs but won't move. This happened between uses. Anyone had this problem?

"running" is not the same thing as "cranking" . think of it as the same thing as your cars engine cranking on the starter, but not yet started. if the engine is not making the familiar "pop-pop-pop" of a 2-stroke at low speeds, its not "running". does it rev-up at all? more details please.

Yes it runs. I think it may be something with the clutch. The starter starts the motor and it runs but the belt from the clutch to the axle does not spin.

can you grab the rear clutch and make it turn by hand? its not locked up, right? the motor starts, revs, but just bogs with no spinning of rear clutch? cylinder head gets warm?

Cgtech you nailed it on this first guess. I overlooked something simple. But I did take apart the clutch and clean it and grease it.
