malcman Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 I was having a stumbling problem with my banshee so today I took the carbs off and reeds. When I took the reeds out I noticed this stuff laying in one of the intake tracks. It seemed kinda like paint, really thin layer that I had to scrape to remove. It was only on the one side though, seemed kinda like carbon build up or something? Good news is I fixed the bike lol jets were pretty clogged up.

Rodneya Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 The intakes are painted black by Yamaha. I don't know why yours have all peeled off like that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtcc Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 yeah most intakes look like that. Or at least the are silver with a small amount of black in them. If it looks like a buildup just try and scape it out before you put it back together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
