kenny007 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 I finally got my first banshee my first atv as a matter of fact I'll put up a pic tomorrow. It has a problem the right hand pipe doesn't get hot, barely any exhaust comes out, and what looks like fuel begins to drip out. Does anyone have an idea whats going on?

Phelps Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 no compression or no fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenny007 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Very little compression but then it begins to pop and then stops. Do you think it might be a stuck float valve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phelps Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 no i think it might be a stuck ring. time for a topend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenny007 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 That really sucks. I do hear like a fast knocking sound. When I take off it slightly putters but then it takes off and it feels like it's making good power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayAiken Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Compression it will make more compression while the motor is turning fast enough therefore making the right cylinder fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave5.0 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Put plugs in it yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenny007 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 So is every one basically agreeing it's a stuck ring and if so how hard is it to rebuild the top end? My knowledge doesn't really go beyond tune ups and disk brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenny007 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Put plugs in it yet? The spark plugs are new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenny007 Posted July 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 The guy who sold it to me said it was 120 each side. If I test it myself will that tell me if it's a stuck ring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrockMoto Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 The guy who sold it to me said it was 120 each side. If I test it myself will that tell me if it's a stuck ring? it will tell you if you need to rebuild or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave5.0 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Wont tell u if it's a stuck ring but it'll tell u if u have compression. If it doesn't have compression doesn't matter what's wrong with it. Still has to come apart. You could always try some engine restore from autozone first.
