northshoremb Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 (edited) I just rejetted and at WOT and 1/8 throttle I get a nice tan brown plug but meantime it smokes out the silencers and also has alot of oil coming out. How can the plugs be perfect but the silencers still smoke and drip oil?????????????? Also I am using a twist throttle and removed the TORS , so how do I adjust the idle now. It starts ok if I give it some throttle but when I let go it will stall out. Edited June 22, 2005 by northshoremb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sredish Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 It's a two-stroke, get used to it. Mine drip as well, but it's fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

race-a-holic Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 My 2000 Banshee never did that!!! It drips alot of oil and even splatters all over my rear # plate, you can't tell me thats normal for it to smoke and drip oil if the plugs come out a perfect tan brown. 384656[/snapback] What ratio are you mixing your oil and gas?

brock_fuzzy_69 Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 24 to 1 holy hell thats a thick ratio i run mine at 64 to 1 run a good oil and change that ratio and it will go away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try 40:1 and see what happens. Also how can I adjust my Idle when there is no Idle screw now that I removed the TORS???????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watkins Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Also how can I adjust my Idle when there is no Idle screw now that I removed the TORS???????? 384887[/snapback] Buy a Idle Screw Kit and install it. I bought the TORS removal kit from Vitos, but sounds like you only need the Idle Screw Kit.. they sell it too. You will have to dill & tap both carbs.. but its pretty simple.

bigboybanshee Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Well I did think that 24:1 was a rich mixture but thats what the Clymer's manual suggested. 384887[/snapback] That recommendation is for break in...after that, you should run nothing thicker than 32:1. Most people run 32:1 and 40:1 mixtures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellabanshee Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 holy hell.......did i read someone was running a 64 to 1 ratio...... what planet do you ride on....lol. any banshee should be ran anywhere between 30-1 to 40-1 unless i am in left feild........heehee new run it at 24-1.......but only for break in... then run at 36-1.........that is a nice area to be:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolguyson Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 I run 32:1 both pipes smoke and spit oil equally? Reason being is if a crank seal goes out you will get trans oil in your crank case and your right plug will be darker in color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sredish Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 holy hell.......did i read someone was running a 64 to 1 ratio......what planet do you ride on....lol. any banshee should be ran anywhere between 30-1 to 40-1 it also depends on the oil. the "key" is to read the back of the oil bottle and it'll give a range of ratios. as long as your in that range, you should be fine. for instance, amsoil has an oil that is rated for 100:1 and there's been several peeps on here running the 100:1 with zero problems. Me, I'm more of a 40:1 guy, but just using that for an example. Read the back of the oil, as long as your within the range, your good.
