What are the Electric Cart Battery and Rear Axle Oil Specs for my cart?
EZ-GO: Batteries = distilled water ½” above plates Rear axle oil = SAE80-90 for 1989-96 SAE30 for 2001+ Club Car: Batteries = distilled water Rear Axle oil = SAE80-90 for 1981-93 SAE30 for 1994+ Harley Davidson / Columbia: Batteries = distilled water Rear axle oil = 80-90 gear lube for 1963-90 SAE30 for 1991+ These charts have been compiled from old manuals, some years were missing, some were poorly written and very confusing. This information cannot be considered accurate, use at your own risk. In our shop we use 10w30 in all 4 cycle engines and we use 2 stroke oil 32:1 for 2 cycle engines. We don’t trust 30 year old oil injection pumps. For rear axles we go by what was in it when it came in, gear lube has a distinct smell. All batteries get distilled water ½” above plates before charging. We have never had a problem doing it out way.
