97banshee Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 I was riding my banshee just a few minutes ago an the pipe that connects my head an silencer came off an it was hott so i couldn't put it back on so i was riding it to the house an i got on the throttle an you know i said it was boggish an all that well you know it was loud an i was going down the road then all a sudden it got quiet an not much power like usuall so i think my left cylinder is cutting out at higher RPMs. because the left pipe wasn't as loud anymore it just got quite but still running on only the right side i belive, so maybe it isn't my carbs its my left cylinder cutting out. any ideas on what i would have to replace? or check?

97banshee Posted September 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 No no no the peice that connects the silencer an the head pipe fell off, ok well i put it back on an took the right side off an i could hear the exhaust all the way up the road where the left side quit making noise so it has to be cutting out.

So the stinger pipe came off? So you put it back on and took the other one off?And now the left side is not fireing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97banshee Posted September 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 So the stinger pipe came off? So you put it back on and took the other one off?And now the left side is not fireing? The stinger pipe fell off the left side it was to hott to put it back on so i set it on my nerf bar an was riding my banshee back home i decided i would see how it sounds without that pipe if i was to hit the powerband, so you know i was going down the road it was running boggish like it has been ever since i got it an no power when on the powerband well anyways it was loud then i hit the powerband you know not much power likes it supposed to have an it got quite, it quit firing on the left cylinder i figured i would put the stinger pipe back on that side an take the one off the right side an seen if it did the same thing, well i went up the road an back down the road with the right side stonger pipe off an that one never cut out. So there for it has crossed my mind its not firing on the left cylinder at high RPMS which is also the reason that when i hit the powerband i really don't have any power. Every now an then when i'm riding an its on the powerband it will have a sudden burst of power then stop again which means the left cylinder started firing again then stopped. Get what i mean now? Sorry if i was talking noob. hahahha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

97banshee Posted September 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 The carb looks brand new on the inside, i cleaned every single part of it, i pulled them 12 times each in hope of adjusting the float an checking other stuff ect..........im putting new plugs in it tomorrow, hope that does the trick.
