- a subscriber contacted me about a bunch of stuff he was looking to get rid of at his farm property, so we went on a pick, one of the items was this early 80s golf cart pickup truck. lets see if it can be saved.

Hot coffee in the mug, a fresh Mustie on the screen - life's good! At least for the next 43min 28s...
Same here, great way to start my day, coffee, Mustie and a shed filled with 2 stroke smoke. LOL
You drink coffee from a gasoline visual probing cup? :)
Yeah man, Mustie always makes my day. It is interesting, I can learn from him and it is fun and relaxing. Just what I need in these "weird" times.
Same bud
Early morning with Mustie, Andrew Camarata, Vice Grip, Cletus, and life is good.
My uncle likes to grind without safety glasses too, been to the ER three times to have metal removed from his eyeballs. Protect your gazers!
I like to do it without glasses too until I got to be near 40:). Never had any issues. I wear ear plugs and glasses now. Some people are better at things than others. Some people can juggle and some people can't walk on flat ground. I also weld with just a pair of gloves and a helmet while wearing shorts and flip flops, it is the only way I can get a tan.:P
Even when you wear the glasses you still get metal in your eyes its not a big deal. they just freeze them with drops and pull out the little splinter. I've had it done quite a few times as a welder fitter. lol
You are right
a young friend of mine thought it is ridiculous to wear safety glasses when using a little Dremel, then a disc exploded and now he only sees with one eye....
Wow. And Volvo 242. From 1975-1977. Awsome Swedish car. Greetings from Sweden.
I loved the little clips that you had at the end and sometimes giving us a glimpse of what's going to be on next awesome idea
better than hollywood does it!
Glad you like them!
Dear A.F.
👍👌👏 Yeah, I like them too, definitely. Kind of appetizer for the next part.
Best regards, luck and health.
@@mustie1 The nature shots too. The Poetic Hoarder ! Ha !
Yes, next up... Hens! 😁
DAMN!!!! That white Volvo 242/244 in the background! They are EXPENCIVE nowadays atleast here in Sweden!
Mustie HAPPY THAKSGIVING, GOD BLESS YOU...
These years of watching Mustie have inspired me to take much better care of my small equipment. Thanks for your time and effort Mustie
all you had to say was " 2 stroke " and Josh was in ...cool piece 👍
"If its dusty, give it to Mustie"!
He should put that on a bumpersticker
@k halliday Or you can say:
Something is rusty, send it to Mustie. He will make it trusty
👍👌👏😁😂 LOL
Yeah! If it's dusty, rusty or crusty, give it to Mustie!
@k halliday Ok "If it's dusty, crusty, or rusty, then give it to Mustie"
Or rusty.
Mid week Mustie, Always a pleasure to watch this man spin he's magic! I'm suprised it started but looking at the next video i'm guessing he found parts!
Thanks Mustie, for your inspiration. You’ve taught me so much and now I’ve become very proficient at small engine repair. You are amazing. God Bless, brother.
Glad to help
There is a rod that runs from the throttle to the front of the engine bay, it has a little round bell top and underneath it is a microswitch and the bell is adjustable for starter/throttle timing. Push the pedal and the switch releases. 90lbs of compression at 5500ft was absolutely minimum on these. Things that wear out on those engines are the throttle shaft gets egged out and leaks (check if it wiggles side to side). Governor needs work ,revving it waaaay too high. Mufflers on these get plugged (popping made me think of this).. we used to take a chisel and poke a hole in them next to the outlet to open them up without buying a new one. They make jug and piston kits for these (used to anyhow). My kind of project. ;) Cheers sir!
A Volvo 244! 1976 maybe? That is what you should have getting your hands on! Damn what a beauty.. And greetings from Sweden!
Watch "The Skid Factory" if you want to see a 1UZ Toyota V8 turbo conversion to an oldish Volvo.
I enjoy listening to people explain why something doesn't run.
A mind is a terrible thing....
it's like listening to people explaining why they suspect their computer is not working OK. just try to filter without lose your mind.
THANK YOU...for sharing. Watched it and very much enjoyed it.
Thanks Darren for the extra vids lately. Excellent.
What a nice variety of projects your giving us.
Nice Volvo 240.. Used to own two..
Thank you for another hour of fantastic infotainment! You are one of the only few mechanics I have the patience to watch as you are a truly humble person. I just want you to know how very appreciative I am that you and (the very few) people like yourself make these channels. I know looks can be decieving but you seem to be pretty well of and do this for a side job. I admire you for not asking for money, people to do things they WOULD NORMALLY DO WITHOUT PATHETIC BEGGING lol Having said that if was in a position to donate money to you I totally woudl. Thanks again and keep doing what you do buddy... you da' man!
Hey Mustie, love your videos and it's really cool to see all the different stuff you work on. I learned alot about trouble shooting gas and electric motors watching your entertaining videos. Keep on making great informative videos.!!!
Check passenger side "doghouse" for year and model. Also golf carts don't idle, its either go or no go. once its going it goes good. I have a 1984 ezgo textron 244cc robin engine cart.
What really that's very not intuitive
@@eaglewi Makes sense though, in theory you just hop in, put the pedal to the metal and zip to the next hole, then hop out. Saves fuel too.
@@amstrad00 that’s why they use Tayotas for golf carts in 🇨🇦.
On the Robin engine tag the Motor Number first two digits will be the motor year. IE mine is 82-xxxxx
The first two digits on the older EZGOs serial number is the year , for example mine is 77052 -****** so a 77 model
Yay! Mid week Mustie1 videos!!! Thank you Mustie!
So cool , glad you showed us this thing .. Have a great Thanksgiving with your family !
This reminds me of a neighbor I had when I lived Georgia...little bit of everything in his garage, including the kitchen sink, and a full bathroom. Loved going scrounging in there.
When mustie1 was talking to the chickens, he was really talking to us "I got more, calm down". Awesome video, I would really enjoy seeing the top end redone, I haven't seen you replace a cylinder yet.
Second the motion for a quick top end freshening. We used to break the old rings in half, use them to clean the groove, and run the hone in and out a couple of extra passes if the cylinder was scored. They run and rattle.
if there isnt one in the free pile , you wont see it !!cvcfffffff
Its just us chickens out here
If it's not a big money pit and the parts are available I'd very much like to see a rebuild of that top end.
need more cylinder replacment videos lol
Perfect timing. Just finished today’s forgotten weapons!
I watch that channel, too.
Hey, thanks from the UK for another mid-week treat. Stay safe and keep them coming. Happy Thanksgiving!
It's Alive!!! Watch out for the speeding tickets there uncle crusty!!! Well done sir!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Mustie, for a second there I almost thought I was watching a Dangar Marine video with chickens in the last few seconds of the video.
This looks like a fun project. I'm looking forward to part two.
Those are Barred Rock...
*I started watching this at 4am and it's better than coffee, lol.*
we use golf carts every year at Fryeburg Fair, Its weird how they set them up to not idle. The ones we used were the same way. Nice flock of Barred Rocks at the end.
Right there with you. 10am, cozy rainy morning, working last say untill 4 day weekend. Life's good!
Second video: Automatic Honda motor swaped into golf cart, third video:“burnouts”. Great job Musti1!
Hi from Australia 🇦🇺
Hi from metro nyc where the sheriff's officers are gonna bust down doors and arrest people if they violate the cb19 rules
I’m also from aus (Victoria)
@tigershadow1 South Aussie here
I worked for a convention center and we had one of those.. thing was awesome, it would go forward or reverse with the switch, pedal to the floor it would do 25 no questions. So much fun!
I'm delighted you are relieving the individual of those parts. The Steam Cleaner is worth Beaucoup Dolares. They're VERY handy for grease piles. VERY.
That "marine" switch or whatever you called it is a master power switch to cut off all power to it!
Good afternoon for everyone here from morocco God bless United States of America ☺💟
God bless morocco! 👍
@@davidhamilton8041 thank you so much sir God bless you too i wish you great day take care of yourself 🖒☺💟
👍 🇺🇸
@@libertyman3729 have a good day sir ☺
@@remembergodisalwayswithyou6862 Be proud of your home country man. My parents visited oh, 30 years ago on an organised bus tour which my late Dad hated for its tourists traps. He escaped the group at each stops they made and went in the small streets and alleys and met awesome and friendly inhabitants. He did'nt speak your language but had no problems exchanging with most of people. As a modest man, he liked to meet ordinary folks, leather artisans, (he bought babouches for us all) enjoyed a good strong coffee with another elder and gladly met the family etc. He came back with REAL small souvenirs given to him by his newfound friends.
My parents went to few other places later but my Dad was still longing to go back to Morocco on his own for a longer stay. Have a nice, safe day mon ami ! ✌🏽
Nice work as always....cool video. Can't wait to see the inside of the engine.
I see a rebuild coming!!! Looking forward to it
Piston and ring kits are cheap for those, I did one several years back. Remove the filter on the oil tank. Thanks
Yay..What a treat.. Another Mustie1 video!
You have tought me so much Mustie. Thanks keep on doing what you're doing
Thanks Paul for the golf cart, always nice to meet a fellow mustie
Mrs. Mustie must hear you fire another one up, and say "oh my gawd, he has another contraption running guess
'll be holding dinner again"
Judging by the brackets underneath it looked like the bed would flip up all of them like this I’ve worked on would always flip up
And thought that to, and the front as well, but that would be too much to ask for.
The guy he got it from said it was welded on.
Yup. I agree.
What a great little utility vehicle ,those pool noodles need to go though,I could see Mustie on the road with it picking up future projects ,would deffo give it a rough and ready paint job if you have some paint kicking about that needs to be used would be nice to see you do some paint spraying,great video Mustie 👍👍
thanks for the thanksgiving eve treat! i am awaiting Sunday eagerly!!
That is a camp rig for sure would be great for hauling small loads of wood and just nice slow drive through the trails.
Not with one wheel drive and and no ground clearance.
Thay can bounce over a lot of stuff
And if your camp ground is that ruff how are ya getting thare in any thing under a 4X4
Back when I played golf in a league I carried a Allen wrench to slide the governor out. We always had the fastest cart..
Sounds fun
@@darthrevan2063 My Uncle Vic really enjoyed employing that "Speed Secret" until the engine threw the connecting rod.
Smart
@@eugenepolan1750 I grew up with EZGO's and Clubcar's, they are both made in my home city of Augusta, Ga and on the 2 strokes running it with no governor will warp the head even on a new one.
OMG, we had one of these when I was a kid! It was a blast. The second cable on the throttle linkage is the governor! ( i figured out how to move it and do about 45mph) ..... did great doughnuts.
Nice Guinea hens, great capes for fly fishing. (and amusing).
Cool old Volvo in the background at the start of the pick.
I saw that too. An early 240 series. I was totally hoping he was gonna scoop that too. No such luck. Damn...
The Volvo 244 would have been the best pick there
@@nepttune710 i guess it´s a -78 244
@@TurboDiesel74 that's so awesome. I want it!
Sweet I know who's going to be late for work this morning
👍🏻 That was fun. Sounds like the engine needs a rebuild, or maybe just rings might do the job. Looking forward to the next video.
Hi Mustie, nice odd find, but bring the VOLVO 244 home tooo / lol- thanks for the video - Ian - UK.
A mid-week mustie.. Yipppeeeeeee
Paul is the real "slippers" !
Old home week for me... I used to be the maintenance supervisor/general director at a conference grounds. I inherited an old Columbia Park Car golf cart. It sounded exactly like yours. The generator/starter needed to be serviced a couple of times, but I never had to buy a new one. It was a fun little maintenance vehicle, and it also was used as a tuck truck for a couple of years taking chocolate bars/candy and soda to people for them to purchase. The poor thing was not coddled, and it took a lot of abuse. I had to weld the frame a few times because of excessive loads, and to pull apart the engine a few times when it refused to start in the spring after bringing it out of storage. I did exactly what you did - I would put the back up on a jack and then start it and run it at full speed to blow the crap out of it (and mice and squirrels) - The end came when somebody ran it into a tree going about 15 miles an hour and broke the front tie rod and pushed the left wheel back about 2 inches... Thanks for the memories Mustie!
A mid week mustie video, just what I needed to lift my spirits a bit. Looks like the Cushman paddy wagon may have a companion. I'd say its worth rebuilding with a different with a new engine and transmission setup like the go cart setups. Would make a great little yard / shop / compound runabout.
Darren, if push comes to shove, a comet transmission on a harbor freight engine might be the ticket.
An old Volvo 240/242 .. i never knew you had em in America.. hahaha :) oh boy i have travled many many many miles in volvo's .. (im in Denmark and we have a volvo Dealer in the family)
I've had three 245's, great cars but a bit thirsty fuel wise. You needed your own oil refinery if you owned a 245, but definitely the safest car I've ever had.
@@CanadairCL44 i had an old orange 245 i used to race in all over the place when the farmers were done harvesting.. even set one corn field on fire once cause the exhaust was dragging on the ground. hahaha.. that's allmost 30 years ago .. cant belive it's been that long. . time passes by sooooo quickly .. and what an insanely crazy year this has been
@@johnnydrac My first was an orange Volvo 145 automatic, got T boned by a small lorry on a roundabout. Walked away and the car was repaired in two weeks!
Enjoying as always with Mustie1 video with my morning cup of coffee here in Norway 8.30 AM 😊👍
This is like a Discovery Channel. You never know what fascinating journey you'll be take on! 👍
These engines are a low compression engines for easy starting with the start/gen.
I was thinking the same thing. A higher compression engine would be hard to start on a flat surface let alone a slight incline.
Yes and generally they don't idle. They only run when the foot is on the accelerator and shut off as soon as your foot is off.
@@clintletendre5585 correct
I found the hard part is they don't idle so adjusting the carb and timing was a guess at best
because they were never meant to idle. took a lot of work on my ezgo to make it idle.
@@spicydeath82 why would you do that?
8 you found a fan I enjoy your work and and a narration of the grass cutter that you repaired earlier and I couldn't find a way to record my comments so here I am back watching you thank you
Golf carts dont idle. Also I used to work on those old EZ-GO carts all the time at the campground, they are notorious for top-ends needing to be replaced. so much so they sell them as a kit, or, used to. That is earlier than 89. as 89 on forward they put those Robin engines upright. then after about 94 they went to the 295cc and 350cc 2-cylinder 4 cycles which were notorious for burning and sinking the valves, among other things.
The previous owner beat the daylights out of that rig!
And claimed to have gotten a speed ticket while driving it 😄
How do you know!!! That thing sat along time, and that alone does no good for machinery
@@frank-t6857 well it was from the wife... I think that counts ahhaa.
@@aarongrabowski5620 He said he thought it was running without oil in the beginning......that will trash a 2 stroke in a minute.
maybe the compression is low because the valves are sticking open (wink-wink).
3 certainties in life. Death, taxes, and Mustie finding an old toy to bring back to life.
No 4 things you can vote after you die.
Enjoyed the mid week video you can fix it mustie if parts are available good little buggy for messing around with 👍🔧🔧🔧👌
This is a fun little rig looking forward to the next one
E-Z-Come, E-Z-Go. Let's hope there's hope for this plucky little motor.
Bismillah!
I smell a setup like he put in that amphibious thing coming to the golf cart.
...or swap the powertrain from the Beaver into the golf-cart pick-m-up.
Yes!!!! Wed. off work and a mid week morning video!!
Plym rocks! 🤘🏻 Beautiful
Mustie, make him a offer on the old Volvo and bring it back to life.
I second that!
My thought as well! The 244 must live again!
@@mathuetax That was by far the most interesting thing in there!
Mustie, torch tip cleaners do a good job of cleaning small jets.
That's what I use too
I can always count on your videos to make me smile.
What a cool looking little cart!
Damn, She mentioned Groton and the Squanacock river. That means you were in my area. I wish I had known.
I grew up in Ayer across from the High School.
@@doncarlton4858 My father was stationed at Fort Devens way back in the sixties.....he and my mother lived in Ayer....
Q: " And the perfect golf car for you 007, it has its own smokescreen projector."
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mines got a better one it leaves about a qourt per week of driving its a 4 stroke also
Your chickens are looking great!
Top o the morning all, what a nice Thanksgiving treat from Mustie. Better tell the boss I’m running late today!
Man you need a homemade exhaust extractor
Yeah, a garage sale shop vac sitting outside and a long hose coming inside would go a long way towards preserving your lungs and not be too loud maybe.
I thought of doing one with one of those cheap 1hp dust collectors from harbor freight, but I don't know how effective it would be with a big length of hose...
@@andrewsobek2386 As long as the cubic feet per minute of the vacuum is greater than the cubic feet per minute of the engine exhaust, it should take all the fumes outdoors.
Sling Blade: “It ain’t got no gas in it.”
Happy Wednesday ,what a v8 golf cart yes fantastic would probably need a bigger access hole but would be great fun 🤩 stay safe folks 👨🏻🏭🇬🇧
This might be a good candidate for trying some of that SeaFoam cleaner. I’m sure the muffler is plugged with old oil too. Great video Mr. D.
I've definitely watched too much Forged In Fire. When he was cutting the access hole, all I could think was "Well, that's some nice hard steel."
1970s steam Jenny........ indestructible
Good video. Cannot wait to see more work on it. Have a great Thanksgiving.
very interesting start, run, go setup, take care eh!
Yay another Mustie one
My parents have one of those. That's about how it sounds. And it barely moves. I don't believe it idles when your foot is off the gas. Take your foot off and it shuts off.
Idles when your foot is “on” the gas.
I have the same one. Looking forward to what you find for parts
Great video
Be great to see this engine gone through and up and running again. Hope you can get the parts at a reasonable price
I remember mine it was hard to tell if it was running or it was just the starter
15:45 Mustie1 will now demonstrate his entire collection of PPE.
Say goodbye to ears, eyes, and lungs. Cant recondition so easily your body Mustie1
Mask ? NO ! Gloves ? NO ! Eye protection ? NO ! Helmet when testing rusty shit box's flying down the road NEVER ! Life insurance ? WHAT FOR ? Live free or die ? 👍
@@libertyman3729 DAMN STRAIGHT, SIR.
Did I blink
In the next episode he shows off his gloves!
The Florida pool pump motor repair guy approved ! that was good info
Nice, new Mustie stuff!
