I don't agree that major engine repair can be expected in a gas cart every five years or so. Obviously, hours of use and frequency of normal maintenance are important factors, but the beauty of a good gas cart, (eg. Club Car, Yamaha), is that the drive trains last a very long time. The best evidence of this is that the 150 viewers of the original post couldn't think of anything to write about.
