If your husband was in Eustis, why didn't you call the tow service and have them take you and your cart home?

Didn’t see oil puddle after it was moved?

Then I’ll guess say battery especially if cart was dead? If you raised the seat should seen something? A Lady about 5 years ago was driving old electric cart and the batteries exploded knocking her out of seat, cart hit curb and turned over.

you’re gas cart only has one battery.

Second guess say secondary clutch? I had similar experience except the cart just slowed down and labored. I was close enough to home and limping it in. Found the secondary clutch was hotter than firecracker. And came apart. But even if secondary clutch came apart the primary clutch would release the transaxle from the engine. Which means the engine would idle but not go anywhere?

Sounds like what happened to me. It was the drive belt that snapped. That was the big booming sound.

Could have been worse. I've driven in states (not in a golf cart) where other drivers would not only have not stopped to offer help, but would have thrown you the finger as they hollered at you going by.

As I said in my post , it was not a complaint. I just asked if someone is parked idle in a golf cart lane or off to the side to just ask if that person needs help. Nothing to do with painting anyone in a bad light. Just a courtesy.

With drive belt missing the cart would still start but, not move, now it it was the starter generator belt it would not. She really didn’t explain “dead” dead like nothing happens when turn key on and press gas pedal or “dead” like engine starts but don’t move cart?

Few come back and explain what fix was anyway.

Good morning, All. On Friday morning at roughly 11:30 a.m. as I was driving in the golf cart path along Morse Boulevard almost at the O’Dell Circle roundabout near Havana Country Club my golf cart just suddenly stopped running and would not move. I called my husband to see if he could meet me. Unfortunately he was on his way back from Eustis and wouldn’t be here for about 25 minutes. I sat in my golf cart for about 20 minutes watching golf cart after golf cart either go around or come towards me without ever inquiring if I needed help. Finally after about 20 minutes a gentleman came alongside of me and asked if I needed help. I i asked if he could help me push my golf cart off the path into the grassy section on the left so I would be out of the way. He moved my cart and asked if I was ok. I thanked him over and over for stopping. As he got in his golf cart to leave he said, see, New Yorkers aren’t all bad. I sadly did not get his name, but, sir, I will say thank you again for stopping to help me!! This post is not to complain but to say, please, drivers, if you see a cart stopped along a path, just make an inquiry to see if that person needs help. I have done that many times if I see someone stopped. Thank you
