Golf Cart Questions

[Captain Ahab]

I am looking for the cheapest way to get this baby running, then maybe burn and turn it this fall, or next spring.
It wont be run all day on a golf course its a beat around the camp ground in the running from camper to bathroom to buddies camper type of situation that requires about 2 hours a weekend of actual use.

I didn't personally look at the battery compartment, but the fella I am getting it from stated 8 batteries.

The cost of reconfiguring the battery holders will likely be counterproductive. I'd just get the 6's and call it good.

I have never been that lucky, but might be worth a try. I haven't looked at them, but it has been in a Quonset for a few winters, and am guessing the batteries are bulged.

It's worth a try , Yesterday I started a tractor that Iv'e owned for 10 years , It came with an interstate battery that was faded from the sun when I got it and still the same battery , The sticker with the date that it came with is 3/4s gone so no way of telling how old it is. It's a magneto tractor so there in no draw on the battery other than about 2 seconds when I start it , I charge it once in the spring and once in the fall with one of those new fangled electronic chargers. It started right up yesterday before the spring charge, I feel lucky. The biggest culprit is over charging them IMO.
This is the very first Interstate battery I've had good luck with.
