AnabolicX Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Anyone have any advice on the best/safest way to prime a stock Banshee engine? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n2otoofast4u Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Prime for oil pressure you mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnabolicX Posted April 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Sorry... prime for starting. I am trying to sort out a fuel or electrical issue for a no start engine. Spark seems weak but plugs seem dry also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtschid0910 Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 I bought a chemically resistant squirt bottle, found it at the local hardware store, and filled it with the same premix I dump in my tank. Take out the plugs and squirt a really little bit into the cylinders, put the plugs back in and kick it over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnabolicX Posted April 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Is one more effective than the other..(priming carbs vs cylinders)? Or is it more of a personal preference? Thanks for the tips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprinklerman Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Just fix the problem. No priming needed. No priming needed to diagnose either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
