bansheesmoke Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 It will start cold but when its warmed up it will only start by tow start. Cant get this problem fixed. And when I pull the choke out when its idling it revs up and idles alot faster. Does this mean that I have an air leak? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooker82 Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I would say you have way to big pilot jets. #30's on a piped banshee. The motor needs more fuel when it is cold that is why it starts. (That is why there is a choak too) When the motor is hot it needs less fuel and with those big ass jets it probably wont start. You might as well be kicking it over with the choak on. I would go to a set of stock (#25's I believe) or a size above stock (27.5's I believe) How many tuns out is the air screw? josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronco91shee Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I WOULD AGREE WITH JBOOKER. ONE OTHER THING TO CHECK MIGHT BE COMPRESSION. MINE WOUDL START COLD, BUT NEVER HOT, IT WAS JUST LOW ENOUGH, TAHT ONCE IT COOLED DOWN AND RESEALED, I COUDL START IT. KINDA A LONG SHOT, BUT IF THE CARBS DONT FIX IT, I MIGHT RUN A QUICK COMPRESSION CHECK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheesmoke Posted June 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I think the air screws are about 1.5 turns out. Compression is 110 both cylinders. Ill get some 25 ansd 27.5s tomorrow and try that. But what makes it rev up and idle fast when I pull out the choke when its idling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what makes it rev up and idle fast when I pull out the choke when its idling? I dont know about stock banshee carbs but my PWK33's do that too. It lets air bypass the slides, but it also pulls more fuel. If you had a bad air leak you would have a hanging high Idle. When you rev it up in neutral it would rev up and slowly come back down. Know what I mean. josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
