...before I scoop it up with the loader bucket, take it up to the gulf, and dump it in...
Trying to get it running good enough to get my money back out of it since mom won't need it anymore and I hate the thing.
Last thing I put on it was an aftermarket carburetor recommended by a "reputable" golf cart parts supplier. As with any other change I've made, it fired right up and ran like a top. Thought I had the problem licked, for the ninth time.
Mom was riding around the yard, and it quit. Would not start choke or no choke.
Long story short the needle on the aftermarket carb was now sticking open and flooding the engine. I could not figure out why so I turned my attention back to the OEM carb. Found the low speed needle on the OEM carb blocked. Cleaned that out with a torch tip cleaner, put the OEM carb back on. It fired right up and ran like a top in the barn, though I could only go back and forth about 20'.
Finally was able to get it out the other day. Turned the key hit the pedal, and it fired right up and ran like a top. Until I got about 20' away from the barn. Then it quit. Would not restart.
It will pop and idle if I just barely touch the pedal, but if I try to give it more gas, it just cranks endlessly. Choke makes no difference.
Literally everything external to the engine has been changed twice. It's had two complete new ignition systems, two complete new fuel systems.
Does anyone have any suggestions from "outside the box" on why this engine refuses to stay running?

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
