Banshee Problem


DDShee

Recommended Posts

alright so it finally stopped raining enough here to get out and ride it a little. now i have a problem. when im riding, once i get into high rpms it skips and misses like a bitch. got new plugs, and if any of you read my old post it has a new stator. so now im trying to figure out why it misses so bad. this is what i have, 03 banshee with some no name pipes (havent been able find any name but pretty sure theyre not stock) trinity stage IV single carb, adjustable timing plate, coolhead with 20cc domes, i think thats it. Any help is much appreciated im in my garage right now ready to try whatever you guys say. Old plugs seemed wicked wet so i might try air/fuel screw? My other question is, when i set my timing, what do compare the marks to to set it? i was thinking where the case splits to the timing marks but im not really sure. Thanks Guys

If you had someone go through it i would check pickup gap on flywheel and maybe the coil i remember someone having the same problem and had a bad coil. If all those are good i would say its the stator.

You could be loosing spark from bad wires or a bad cap. i had the same problem and just happen to be riding at night and could see the fire jumping and grounding to the head. Sounds crazy but maybe you should try revving your motor up in a dark garage or at night and watch the coil and plug wires to see if you have any fire jumping around.
