1973 E-Z-GO Golf Cart. Why does my plug wire get so hot?
Plug wires should low ohms and if its old or pinched/otherwise damaged it could be creating resistance which would create heat. The stop and start coukd also be wire damage and luck. There can also be an issue with the voltage regulator causing the start/stop issue as older ones had heat effected spring steel relay switch designs.
start with fresh plug wires and plugs. Be ready for a possible coil but typically if a coil is firing hot it would heat both wires and the issue may go a step farther back and include a regulator or ballast resistor if so equipped.
Keep it simple: plug wires. They are readily available for that model online as are plugs, coils, igniters, etc.
there even repair manuals if you wish to go that far.
