EZGO engine question

[Z-type]

Hi everyone,

I'm new here but this site looks pretty cool! Never thought there would be such an extensive site just for golf carts! Which is convenient because I need a semi-important question...

I have a late '80's EZGO gas cart (not sure of the year - serial number 692251) and the engine is smoking. I'm pretty sure it's a piston problem and blah blah blah but I've decided to replace the engine. It's the EH29c engine but I'm wondering what other model engines will swap right in? Maybe something a little more powerful? Any information is good information! Thanks!

You should be pleasantly surprised, the 4 cycle engine was put in in 92 and up carts so its a 90's cart. You can check by the last 2 digits of the manufacturers code. This is located below the serial number on the same plate.

My advice is that there is a guy selling rebuilt robins on eBay, go with one of those. You can also go with the 350cc version, same engine different head also being sold on eBay complete.

I love the robin engines when they are running right, but they are a pain when they break

Hmm that sounds pretty good. Just in case, what is the model number of the 350cc engine?

[Michael Eddie]

I don't know the model number, but it will say right on the engine tag where it says "Robin" it will also say 295cc or 350cc.

I'm trying to find a repair manual for a eh29c.

Having trouble viewing the link ...any ideas?

Is this the manual I would use for a complete rebuild on the '99 295cc engine?

I saw a seller on ebay selling a factory rebuilt engine (from EZGO in GA) with warranty for appox $900. Is this the going rate?

Was thinking about going to 350cc. Is the top speed difference only 3 mph?

I have a Robin 35C Engine, no compression and I pulled the head off. A lot of slap in the pistons, where can I get info on buying new piston and rings? Also, how can I measure to make sure the block has not been bore out? Need some help please...

Thank you in advance...

Yes, it's the one you want, you need 5 posts to get to the rebuild manual.
