crapsahoy1 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 i just put a new top end in my 2001 banshee, went to kickstart it but wont fire up, I can pop start it and it fires right up. I did a compression check on it and was reading 60 lbs. way too low, it should be around 110. should i do a pressure test on the motor to see if it is leaking. or should i pull out the pistons again to make sure that i installed them right, I cant understand why there should be a leak since it started all the time before i put in the new pistons. any help would be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheezFast02 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 I think compression on a healthy factory Shee should be between 125-140 PSi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa_smurf49319 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 whats the ring end gap? Piston to bore clearance, is this a stock stroke, or a stroker? Details on engine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SD1026 Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 i think you should get a climbers manual and do all of the things you listed . hopefully you didnt scare the cylinders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrenalineJunky Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Sounds like you get the practice of doing it again. Sorry to hear that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrMeyer Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Are u using a compression tester with a check valve in the adapter? If not,then u will have low comp readings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
