J-Madd Posted September 30, 2006 Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 When I start up my shee the right side pipes get warm like usual but my left side is cold as can be. i need help. its spitting out oil out of the tail pipe as well in need of urgent help Here's a list: Change plugs Unplug TORS Check choke tube Unplug parking brake Swap plug wires left to right Clean carbs thoroughly Check Compression in both cylinders Check for air leaks Check these things in that order until you find the problem. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny's Banshee Posted September 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 ok so I took out the spark plugs and the left plug is not getting spark or something it looks brand new what is this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okbeast Posted September 30, 2006 Report Share Posted September 30, 2006 Do you still have the TORS system? Also if you have a multimeter you can check your coil to see if you're getting fire there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny's Banshee Posted October 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 I do not have TORS and I am getting fire. I took out both spark plugs and the side the pipes are not warming up the spark plug looked brand new. There is a combustion problem or something I swithed plugs and still its not working on the left side so I switched the coil over to the other plug and still nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 When you switched coil leads, did the other side get spark? I think you bought my stock cylinder head, Penny.... What all did you do when you tore this motor down? Just a fresh top end, did you get into splitting the cases? Have you done a leak down and/or a compression test on this build? What all did you do to unplug the TORS...and has it ever run fine since you unplugged the TORS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny's Banshee Posted October 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 I have not taken the motor apart I have not done anything to it its a 03' the compression is pretty good on both sides I just did a compression check and its in the low 120's on both so its good. The left cylinder for some reason is not getting any spark what so ever I didnt buy your stock head the motor I bought came complete. its weird it is starting up on the first kick everytime. the left cylinder is just not firing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 Penny...I sold you a coil...I just looked back at my for sale... Are you using the coil I sold you, or is this a different bike? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueshee03 Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 if your getting spark ,did you check the reeds and such? .sounds like it may be a fuel supply problem or air supply problem to that cylinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny's Banshee Posted October 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 I bought a coil from you and no I bought a new coil I thought the coil that I bought from you was bad but it wasnt I bought a new one thinking it was and put it on my bike and the spark problem I was having before I bought that from you was due to a bad ground. You mention I bought a head from you but I bought the coil not the head. But back to the problem could it be a valve problem ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 Aha... Nope, someone else bought the head....sorry. Ok...the coil worked last time I tried...but, it was a while ago...and...it is used. Just wanted to be sure...for you. I can't see it being a reed not causing it to fire. If you pull the plugs out, and ground them against the head, can you see a blue spark fire across the ground/electrode? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
