2003 EZGO models
Some popular 2003 EZGO golf cart models are mentioned in the list below.
- 2003 EZGO TXT Series/Fleet – This golf cart differs from the PDS model by two key aspects. One difference is that there is no regenerative braking. Also, the positioning of the F/R switch is different. It is fitted near the leg position of the driver.
- 2003 EZGO TXT PDS – This golf cart incorporates a precision drive system and is equipped with a separate motor that allows regenerative braking. The cart also has a programmable controller that makes the maintenance of the engine an easy task.
- 2003 EZGO TXT Freedom – This golf cart features a steel frame with a powder coating. This coating ensures that the steel doesn’t rust over time.
- 2003 EZGO Shuttle 2 + 2 – This golf cart can seat three passengers apart from the driver. The electric variant can withstand a total load of 800 lbs. including passengers and cargo.
- 2003 EZGO Workhorse – This golf cart has a square-shaped front with two headlights. The cart comes with a cargo box or bed at its rear to help with cargo transportation.
The Freedom golf cart is available in Freedom, Freedom SE and Freedom LE variants as well. The TXT carts are best suited for recreational and personal use. On the other hand, the Workhorse, true to its name, is an apt option for industrial and commercial applications.
2003 EZGO gas golf cart
The 2003 EZGO gas golf cart must have a pressure rating of more than 160PSI on both its cylinders when a compression check is done. The difference in pressure between the two cylinders should ideally be 12PSI.
The solenoid must be checked periodically using a voltmeter to determine if there is sufficient flow of electricity from the ignition to the engine of the cart. If the flow isn’t sufficient, it can lead to a weak startup and eventually pave way for a damaged battery. It’s recommended that the solenoid is checked at least once in two months.
The fuel levels must be checked regularly and leaks should be cleaned for the smooth running of the engine. The battery cables have to be connected tightly and replaced if they are in frayed condition. The distributor cap must also be dry always.
The air filter and spark should be checked periodically and changed if needed. The fuel lines have to be inspected for leaks or cracks and fixed.
The pivots of the brake should have free movement while it must be ensured that the springs are clean and well lubricated. The brake drum, shoes and bracket system must be kept clean and wear out uniformly. Squeaking or grinding noises indicate that one or more brake parts need replacement.
Inflate the tires to exactly the desired level. Overinflation can lower their contact with the road, causing less traction and thereby reduced tire life.
On the other hand, underinflation can trigger increased fuel consumption. The tire treading should also be inspected for signs of wearing out to avoid a blowup.
2003 EZGO electric golf cart
The primary aspect to be addressed with respect to a 2003 EZGO electric golf cart is its batteries. Battery problem is one of the most common reasons for engine failure encountered with electric carts. The cart uses deep cycle batteries that need regular tuning and generate a lot of current.
If the electric golf cart is going to be kept unused during the winter, you must charge the battery to the maximum extent and clean it using an anti-corrosive agent. It’s ideal to spray an acid neutralizer over the battery.
During summer, two things to be checked on a priority basis are oil leakage and flat tires. Oil leaks must be cleaned and tires should be inflated as mentioned in the user manual.
You must also pay attention to a few other factors regularly, all through the year. The bushings should be inspected for signs of wear and tear and fitted with new ones when needed. Check the various wire connections and replace frayed wires. Adjust the steering so that it is neither too tight nor too loose.
