96white/red Posted December 19, 2013 Report Share Posted December 19, 2013 I just joined, site is the best thing out. just rebuilt my 96' and had port job done. It runs like hell! ! but there is a lag when pulling out not a miss or anything like that. It cleans up and runs awesome after you get going. Starts and idles good as well, I have rebuilt several banshees this one b/c the clutch pushrod mushroomed and would not come out . So I split the cases and fixed that .. new clutch, and top end plus port job. love the power and could ride it the way it is but would prefer to fix my lagging issue. Plugs are rich but I am running rich oil mixture 6ozs/gallon for a tankfull break-in period? I am no carb expert so help would be great??

lms1977 Posted December 19, 2013 Report Share Posted December 19, 2013 what are your port timings at? depending on the porting it might be lazy on the bottom its a give and take thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96white/red Posted December 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2013 I don't know what the port timings are.. will check with shop. Never thought of port job give and take issue but I am sure as hell pleased with it. Probably just me being o.c.d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 hmm i think first i would go to a reasonable oil mix ratio. THEN do some jetting work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne_smith97 Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 22.5:1 that's pretty rich like cam said go to 32 or 40 to 1. Being that rich without proper jets can make it run like crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96white/red Posted December 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 Only running that mix on 1st tank for the new top end then 32 : 1. Its not running like shit but I think I will get some help dialing it in if it doesn't clean up after this tank is gone. I had to hone/ clean the mainshaft out and then put the new clutch in. The quad has been sitting for ten years with the clutch pushrod stuck (my pushrod issue occurred when the clutch started slipping and tried to make it home). I read about it on this site then fixed it right. Took everything out cleaned cases and all new seals. Guess I will try some lonestar A-arm next. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young Guns Racing Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 Not sure if you already have them but vforce 4s pick up a decent little bottom end snap. Might try a set of those and as u mentioned go back to jetting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 Try one size up on pilot. Maybe your lean on the bottom end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUSTY05 Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 Try one size up on pilot. Maybe your lean on the bottom end. X2 i got a ported stock cyl banshee.. had a 27.5 pilot in it with 340 mains... got bored today and swapped them for 30 pilots and it picked up a lil snap off idle...

sick421 Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 <p>Yeah i would bump the pilot one size, dead spots usually mean a lean condition </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Sent from my iPhone using <a class='bbc_url' href='http://tapatalk.com/m?id=1'>Tapatalk</a></p> 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
