GENERAL INFORMATION

See General Warning, Section 10, Page 10-1.
All Club Car gasoline vehicles are powered by 4-cycle, overhead valve, single cylinder, air-cooled engines.
The 4-cycle engine has an oil reservoir (crankcase) similar to automobiles, trucks, aircraft, heavy equipment,
machinery and other applications designed for reliable heavy-duty service. The engine has two major compo-
nent assemblies: the cylinder assembly and the crankcase assembly. See following NOTE.
NOTE: Engine rotation is clockwise as viewed from the clutch side of the engine.
This section contains information for removing and replacing the FE290 engine. For complete instruction on
engine disassembly, repair, rebuilding, and reassembly, see the Engines and Drivetrain Components, Repair
and Rebuild Manual (CCI P/N 102396501).

BEFORE SERVICING

Carefully read the applicable information and instructions before beginning engine service. Diagrams, DAN-
GER, WARNING, CAUTION and NOTE statements and detailed descriptions have been included wherever
necessary. Anyone attempting engine service should have knowledge and experience in small engine service
and repair.

ENGINE ROTATION

When turning the crankshaft by hand, always turn it clockwise as viewed from the clutch side of the engine.
This will ensure proper adjustments.

SPARK PLUG

Spark plugs are selected to suit specific engine design and vehicle operating conditions. The spark plug (CCI
P/N 101881101) is designed to give maximum life and efficient combustion of fuel. The spark gap is 0.027-
0.031 inches (0.69-0.79 mm).
