In order to get the right mix in your Harley Davidson golf cart, you want to use 1.5 ounces of high grad 2-cycle oil for each gallon of gas. In severe instances, the motor will lock up and will have to be rebuilt in order to bring it back to service. This whole area is then prone to overheating which can lead to major damage to the motor if the motor is left to run for any length of time. When there is not adequate oil in the mixture, the first thing that happens is that the piston begins to heat up, followed by increased heating of the other motor parts that are nearby the combustion chamber. More often than not problems arise in this area because there is not adequate two-cycle oil in the mix. Below you can watch a short video description of these retro machines.Oil Mix For the Harley Davidson Golf Cart The restoration took over 1,000 hours and the result is, as advertised, "high-end, concours-quality." No reserve and no price have been mentioned.
The ride is impeccable from all points of view, including a completely rebuilt engine, charging system, and uphostery.
The H-D golf cart Barrett-Jackson is selling this weekend has been restored to awesome looks, in classic Harley orange/black livery, chromed wheel hub covers, painted grab rails and steering, polished tray and all. And making always running with a battery in good health mandatory. That is because the direction the engine was rotating was dictated by the direction the electric started was spinning.Ī small lever under the seat was used to revert the polarity of the starter, therefore spinning the engine in the desired direction. A 2-stroke Harley machine that has to be shut off before putting it in reverse or vice-versa One of the funny details of these Harley-Davidson golf carts is that choosing forward or reverse required the driver to shut the engine off. The bench of the cart is also a lift-top cover for the engine and tank compartment. It is noisy and makes a lot of smoke, obviously, but apparently it does the job pretty well. The engine is a 2-stroke air-cooled single with electric starter and easy-to-use throttle-and-go operation. Harley went 4-wheel before the cart division was sold to Columbia Par Car in 1982. The one we are showing to you was made in 1971, but still belongs to the early generations, as it only has three wheels.
We did a little research for these carts and it looks like they were rather popular back in the '60s and '70s. It may be a tad too late for some who maybe wanted to take this cart home, but at least now you know there's at least one fully-restored piece that might show up in other auctions later on. We spotted the cart is up for grabs in an auction held by Barrett-Jackson at Palm Springs, Florida, this very weekend.
