I had a problem in my Yamaha golf cart the first time I used ethanol free gas. About a year and half ago right after the Marathon station opened I switched in my 2011 cart. So it had been on regular gas for about 4 years. Put the ethanol free in and went to play 18 holes at Belle Glade. Got to the course, played 18 holes everything went fine, then pulled out on Moyer to leave and the cart died. I had to hold the choke out all the way while driving and the cart wouldn't go over 5 mph. If I sped up or let go of the choke, it would die. I live off St. Charles, so it took over an hour to get home. Next day I called Willie Wilcoxsin, who does my regular servicing. He said that clean gas probably knocked off all that ethanol build up on the carburetor and fuel lines. He flushed everything out and the cart has run great ever since.
