I bought a golf cart yesterday that the fellow said wouldn't start. He said it was the solenoid or the starter/generator that's mounted on top the engine and attached to it with a belt like and old garden tractor. I really don't know jack about golf carts and I have to ask a stupid question to a group that I know will be able to help. How are they supposed to be started. I can't quite tell if the key has a start position or not. I turned it to on and the generator started turning the engine over and over and it didn't even stop when I turned the key off. It has a solenoid. Does it start and run like a lawn tractor or does then engine do that and only fire when the accelerator is pressed or what.
