  If your Club Car Golf Cars spark plug fouls repeatedly, it may be due to an incorrect plug, so replace it with the correct spark plug. The spark plug wire may be damaged, so repair or replace the spark plug wire. Unsuitable fuel or an incorrect (rich) fuel mixture could also be the cause, so use suitable fuel and adjust the fuel mixture. The ignition coil may have failed, so test and replace the ignition coil. Dirt entering the combustion chamber can also cause this, so check the intake system for leaks. Lastly, heavily worn rings and low cylinder pressure may be the issue, so inspect and replace the rings as needed.

  If your Club Car Golf Cars transmission does not engage or disengage smoothly, the transmission shifter linkage may be binding or out of adjustment, so adjust it.

Internal gears may be damaged or worn, so inspect and replace the internal gears. Finally, the synchronizer rings may be worn, damaged, or jammed, so replace or repair the synchronizer rings.
