AustinONeal Posted June 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 [quote name='dajogejr' date='Jun 26 2006, 02:29 PM' post='532479'] Get the leak fixed first...it's possible your carbs are running out of fuel for extended top end. the leak it very very small, its not even a leak it like a drip every 15 minutes, Is it right off the bat (1st, 2nd gear) that it cuts out on top...or 3-6? Its at high rpm doesnt matter which gear its in just when u rev it up racing, Are you floats set right, keeping enough fuel in the bowls? Im not sure about the float setting, im coming off a raptor so is the setting on the banshee the same height as the raptor? Since you mentioned all that sand in the tank...did you clean your carbs before or after you cleaned out the tank? Yea i cleand them while the tank was off and putting the new valve in Did you use NEW gaskets for your intakes...and make sure they're not leaking air? Yes the setup came with new gasket and boots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r/atvshee Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 i got a dual pingel. I used a sealant and the gasket and the mount. when i first turned the gas on it started to leak a bit but after a while of sitting it stopped leaking. the way u say its revving like. Maybe rejetting would help :baseball_shy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Try fattening up your main two sizes.... To be honest, I just got my 35PWKs on...so, I'm not sure of their float measurement. Since they're probably about the most common carb on shees...or close to it, someone will chime in on how to set 'em. My best GUESS is flip 'em upside down, and make sure the bottom of the floats are level... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinONeal Posted June 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 You're going to have to put oil in your gas to beat my ass...""" I LOVE THAT""" is there any way u can clean a fouled plug for re-use i used a torch and get them hott and i started smelling 2 stroke oil thought that might have done it, not sure but ill get back to ya about the Possibility of the plugs being the issue..

dajogejr Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 I buy 4 to 6 plugs at a time at Murray's auto center. At 1.79 a plug, I don't waste time trying to clean 'em...and with the issues you've been having, I wouldn't try to save 'em either. Yeah...I got the oil in the gas thing cause most of my buddies are 450 riders... If there's one thing us banshee owner's have in common...it's our ego...

AustinONeal Posted June 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 man the local yamaha shop charges like 4.50 per plug maybe i should get them at walmart or some place like that, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 That's flat out highway robbery... An NGK BR8ES shouldn't be more than 2.50 each from a dealer... Search in the for sale section, a member here was selling a box of 10 I believe for cheap, like 1.60 a plug or so.... I doubt WalMart will have the plugs, but if you have AutoZone or Murray's auto centers near you, I know they will...less than 2 bucks a pop. Pep Boys also carries them.
