if it stalls clean the carb. if it wont move but the engine revs up and its in gear the clutch is bad

fuel pump could be the cause but also the float in the carby could be not set at the right level and starve the motor at high revs .

You do not have to reset the computer, but you do have to enter in your security code for the padloc security system. If you have forgotten your code or never entered one before, you will need to do that now. It is an easy fix. First, open the front hatch and find the blue connector. It will have only one wire in it. Disconnect that connector. Now, on your meter panel, hit and hold the mode button till the word CODE appears on the right gauge. At that time, hit any combination of any 4 letters from the buttons down the right. They can be all the same or all different, you just have to enter 4 letters. Now plug the blue connector back in, put the trunk back, and hit the start button. If it does not crank, hit and hold the mode button again and re-enter the code you just stored. After you enter the correct code, it will now say START and you are good to go.

Remove and clean the carburetor. The problem is a plugged or partially plugged idle jet. There should be a throttle screw and an air screw on the side of the carb. The big screw is the throttle screw. Remove both screws and the float bowl and spray carb cleaner in all the holes and screens and jets to clean out the plug. Use goggles to avoid spray kicking back into your eyes. Put the two screws back in the hole each one came from and then turn them clockwise ubtil they LIGHTLY seat. Now open each of them one and one half turns.

It appears that your fuel to air ratio is off at half throttle. Is this model fuel injected?

easy repair as its clutch shoes will be worn out & or weak springs!
just nolt the cover & remove the clutch drum revealing the shoes [like drum brakes ]

Sounds like it could be a bad earth. Rusty bolt on an earth terminal.

sounds like a bad starter

ISorry m8, no scooter expert but ive changed a couple of CDIs on Italian Scooters and they are a simple plug-in as on any size bike. They are usually found down near the battery, just unplug the old one and pop the new one in, there should be a retainer or something to stop it rattling round.
Sorry i can't be more use.

If there is forward pressure on the tires they may resist turning. If the cart is not moving the wheels will be more difficult to turn. Most golf carts do not have power steering.

Hi, if it starts again after a litle wile ,then you must have a petrol level inside the carburator tha is to low. in the fuel chamber you find a buoy that controls the amount of petrol coming into the carburator. If this level is to low you just run out of fuel after a fast ride.
Also you must check that your gas tank "breathes" so air can go in as fuel comes out, otherwise it will stop fuel from running due to a vacuum process.
Good luck

How can you make the yamaha razz faster

There will be a fuel line running from the gas tank to the carb. The carb will have a cable connected to the twist grip on the handle bar. On most bikes the carb is found on the top - back side of the cylinder. Also clean the air filter connected to the back of the carb and install a new spark plug.
