I've posted on this Club Car before but I've made ZERO progress with it despite changing everything in the ignition system and fuel system.
Every time I change a component, I step on the pedal and VROOM! It comes to life instantly and runs like a top. For a time. Maybe minutes. Maybe a couple of days. Then it's back to its old tricks, just sitting there crank-crank-crank, sometimes eventually starting. Maybe choke helps. Maybe not. No rhyme or reason to it. I can choke it and it will fire and I can hold the choke and it just sits there crank-crank-crank.
It has:
1. New ignitor and rev limiter.
2. New ignition coil.
3. New spark plug.
4. New fuel lines and fuel filter.
5. New fuel pump.
6. New carburetor (the final straw).
NONE of these replacements was at random. They were all done after troubleshooting and doing research and following the symptoms. It's had every symptom. No spark.
I pull the fuel line off the carb and crank it, fuel SPRAYS out the hose. So the pump is working and the carb is getting fuel.
I pull the spark plug, and it has bright blue spark.
I open the drain on the carb and fuel runs out in a steady stream so there is fuel in the carb.
The thing it's doing now is after I open the carb drain and "blood let," it fires right up and runs perfectly... for about 3 seconds. Then I "blood let" it again, and it runs perfectly... for about 3 seconds. It will do this as many times as I drain fuel from the carb.
Can someone please clue me in on what is going on? I've gone round and round with troubleshooting and replacing parts and troubleshooting and replacing parts, and there's nothing left to troubleshoot and replace.
