Mikepsbanshee Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 I have a 89 banshee that was been sitting in a shop since 07' I cleaned her up n put new fluids, bike always a lil hard to start but would, and ride for a lil while tihen eventually would start boggin out and stop running but would start again later... Was told it was never jetted after FmF sst pipes and silencers, all airbox crap removed/replaced W/ K&N filters and run 32.1 ratio ... I moved n she went to storage for 7 months now won't start so I rebuilt carbs discovered their was stock 25 pilots and 260 mains, so i put 30 pilots and 340 mains after some research and did tors elimination kit n gonna get new spark plugs tomorrow... I can't get her to kick start to save my life only starts by pull start but won't idle neither idle is 2 1/2 turns out an air screw is 1 1/2 out and needle is cliped at 2nd from bottom I belive... I'm getting fuel and spark but not very strong spark could that be my issue or am I way out of wack with my jetting?? Please help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawa110 Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 If it pull starts but won’t kickstart could be poor compression, might have a air leak as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
375hp banshees Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 ^^ could be multiple problems, start with one.Can you keep it running above can idol... after it starts?There is no set idol turns and some carbs need the boss( the one you tapped) filed down, to let the screw go in deeper in order to get it to idol high enough. If you can keep it running by throttle id screw idol all the way in & try that 1st, if not: do a search, to make sure your slides and bowls are in/on correct carb. And make sure you put choke tube back in.Also make sure exhaust isn't clogged ...with a rat... nest Sent from my SM-A505U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
