Many owners buy them at a local warehouse club store. Ordinary golf car
batteries are fine.
If you can't find them, call a local golf course and ask the mechanic
where they get their batteries.
Going price is usually around $50 per battery -- it depends on the
current price of lead. Don't pay over $60 each.

Hmm. My tractor has "Fuel level" and "power use" meters. Which one is
malfunctioning on yours?
Check all the connections. On these old machines it's often a bit of
corrosion on a faston somewhere. Wiggle everything.
If the "fuel level" meter itself is kaput, replacements are a standard
item at golf car dealers. I think they cost around $20 - $30 each. Make
sure you get a 36 volt version.
If it's the ammeter ("power use"), I don't know offhand what would
replace it.
