sandmann Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 This might be a stupid question, but i did alot of reading about carb adjustment since i removed them and cleaned them. I have a general idea about what to do, but i cant get the stupid banshee to start in order to do any adjustments! Is there a setup i can start with and then take it from there?

sheerider11 Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Well what's done to your bike? Stock? Ported? Stroke? Carbs? Pipes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandmann Posted December 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Well what's done to your bike? Stock? Ported? Stroke? Carbs? Pipes? I got it used, its a 2004 all stock with K&N air filter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erickson483 Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Get rid of the TORS. That's always a good start. Rockymountanatv has a nice eliminator kit for around $40. Well worth the investment. Also, check to make sure the choke tube is connected. Did this thing ever run before you cleaned the carbs? Or are you trying to find the starting issue?

sandmann Posted December 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 When I first got I used to start from first kick. After taking it to the dunes a couple of times it got worse and worse. So I decided to clean the carbs, and now it doesn't run at all. Do I start by adjusting the air and keep the fuel constant? Or is it the other way around? Or is there no specific way of doing this, just trial and error! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erickson483 Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 I would put your air screw to 1.5 turns to 2 turns out then leave them. The idle screws, I did mine by starting low, then starting it with the choke on and adjusting from there. Have you checked your plugs and compression? And have you made sure you are getting spark? Stator could have gotten dirty. Hopefully it's just something stupid to fix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
