Right pipe cold at idle. Warms up some when riding


Recommended Posts

Hello all, I've recently bought my first banshee so I'm pretty new to owning one. I finally got it running perfect the other day then the next morning I went to hop on it and it was running like dog $h*t. I noticed my right pipe was still dead cold while my left was hot. Messed with the carbs quite a bit noticed that brass washer that goes with the main jet was missing so I put one on and now the pipe will warm up when riding but still cold at idle and I'm missing a lot of power

What I have checked so far.

Compression 122psi both cylinders

Reeds are good

I believe the carb is clean I checked the pilot and main so no issue with them

Carbs are synced

Switching plugs and wires makes no difference

If anyone has any helpful info I would really appreciate it. I love the banshee but dear lord its a fussy 8it*h

Have you completely disassembled the carbs and let them soak or put them in a ultrasonic cleaner? Or did you just spray them with carb clean. I think your right carb might have a plugged up port if it was running fine then went to shit. Or double check compression and reeds

Sounds like the neadle and seat is not sealing so your float level is to high on that side flooding that cylinder. pull the carb take off the bowl, hook a fuel line to it and close the float manually to make sure the fuel stops.

GREAT IDEA! I will pull that off and give that a shot today thanks
