Greetings everyone. I'm new around here as I'm new to carts. I've been searching old posts but coming up empty.
I acquired a 1992 ez-go code: E2692 I guess it's a 'marathon'
After chasing down problems, I finally pulled my motor and found the wire blasted off one of the brushes. That brush is badly worn and the commutator is grooved pretty good. I can't see anything else ugly about it. I don't think it was overheated etc but I'm no expert.
There was a mess of fine fiberglass (guessing) packed in the brushes area. I can't figure out where it came from. Whatever it was is shredded and gone.
I may be able to get the armeture on a lathe and clean up the brush contact area and install new brushes, but I'm trying to decide the best way to utilize funds. I'd hate to spend $70ish on brushes and find I have more problems.
I'm considering a Plum Bandit motor especially since it appears to be an "upgrade". Their website doesn't explain what is upgraded though. Does anyone know?
I don't care about speed, I need torque for using it around the farm
Also, I'm not sure my older motor is included in their rebuild list.
I'm also picking up a rusted out ez go of unknown date. The code seemed to be a letter followed by 300. I'm not sure what year it would be.
Would the motor in the newer cart be interchangeable, or is it a different type?
It has the manual F/R switch at the knee. Tow/haul toggle on controller
I'll call Plum Quick Monday, but I'm hoping I can get some feedback from the guru's here over the weekend!
Thanks for having me!
