  Chad BowenAug 19, 2025
  If your Club Car Utility Vehicle's engine isn't starting easily, several factors could be at play. A partially fouled or poor condition spark plug could be the culprit, so check and replace it if needed. Damaged or loose spark plug wires can also cause this issue; inspect and replace them if necessary. Other potential causes include loose wire connections at the ignition coil or RPM limiter, intermittent ignition coil failure, or low cylinder compression. Also, water or dirt in the fuel system or carburetor, a dirty or clogged fuel filter, an improperly adjusted carburetor, or a slipping starter/generator belt can prevent easy starting. Drain the fuel system, clean or replace the fuel filter, adjust the carburetor settings, or adjust the belt tension to resolve these issues.

  If your Club Car Utility Vehicle engine turns over but doesn't start, the issue could stem from several causes. First, ensure the fuel tank isn't empty and refill if necessary. Check for clogged fuel lines or filters, and replace them if needed. A fouled spark plug or damaged/loose spark plug wire can also prevent starting, so inspect and replace these parts as required. Other potential causes include loose wire connections at the ignition coil or RPM limiter, a flooded engine due to excess choking (refer to the Owner’s Manual, Controls and Indicators, See Choke), a malfunctioning fuel pump, a failed ignition coil or RPM limiter, or a grounded kill circuit. Test and replace the fuel pump or ignition coil if faulty and inspect/repair any grounded kill circuits.
