banshee is frustrating


Recommended Posts

this thing is getting to the point of me wanting to sell it. my wife says not, to go ahead and ix it. i have already put $1200.00 into it. within the next two weeks prob. $500.00 more. if the T.O.R.S. elimnation kit doesn't do, and if a new nology coiland wires don't do itand if a new cdi boxdon't do it. the last resort will be the stator. if that doesn't do it it will be for sale.

i bought it dirt cheap. it needed an top end rebuild. i rebuilt the top end .20 over with vito's power pistons, added a boost bottle, rejetted it. it ran awesome. (main jett-300, new needles-3rd clip, 30 pilots) . then i added vito's reeds and reed cages along with clamp on K&N's. ran better than i ever wanted it to. then i added FMF fatty's with power core 2's. the left cyl. barely runs until you give it gas. checked compression, took the carbs apart 2 time and cleaned and tried diff. jett sizes( i have 200's , 260's , 290's and 300's).still nothing. i can get it to idle but it is real high. checked all of the electrical connections, they are good. i even took the left pipe off put it on the atv jack and looked in the exh. hole for damage. nothing. i have tried swaping the plug wires , everything. THANKYOU FOR ANYHELPAND INFO ANYONE MAY HAVE.

Make sure you are getting fuel. That is an easy place to start, and more times then not the problem.

 

I suppose that making sure you have compression, spark, and fuel are the first things you need to determine. If you have all that, then than any spark ignited engine will run as long as you can get all three things to happen at the right time. :thumbsup:

Problems started when you added the pipes. 300's sounds way too low for what you're mods. Try new plugs and then do a plug check but if you ran it too lean for too long, even idle, you could have blown you new pistons already. Sorry buddy, it happens.

sparke plugs looked wet until i changed the jetting. now they look good. compression is awesome. top end with all of the mods has maybe 7 hours on it

 

Awesome is not a valid measurement of compression. What is the compression on each cylinder in punds per square inch? :ermm:
