[QUOTE=Rc Moser;762240They should change the oil every 50 hours maximum (what ever the owners manual recommends?). IMO that would be at least 3 times year for most gas cart drivers due to the amount of use in the villages beings they do double duty transportation and golf course duty. ask any of the Golf cart dealers see what they tell you about oil change schedules. I bet they will tell you most cart owner don't do oil changes enough. maybe new cart will come with service light like most cars now days.

Yamaha manual specifies changing oil every 250 hours or 1200 miles. The Villages golf cart store recommends once a year. I drive my cart over 4,000 miles a year, none of it on a golf course, and have them service my cart once a year, but in between I change my oil twice using full synthetic Mobil 1.
