Subject: Yamaha Golf cart keeps running


My 2000 gas yamaha golf cart after being driven and warmed up, the
engine will continue to run slowly but steadily. I haven't seemed to
be able to find a linkage problem, however I haven't taken the air
filter assembly off to check at the carb. Any ideas?

Carbon build up on the pistons can do the same thing... worse on 2
cycle engines. They make a cleaner for 2 cycle boat engines to remove
it.

Clean spark plug(s). Carbon built up on the contacts can stay hot
enough to keep firing even with no current through them.
