Crank seal... not good. right plug is dark black, like that side if fooling up with back ozze. right side it like a white how do i check the pick up gap?
okay did the jetting today thats all good, but now ive got some bigger issues, the bike smokes a ton out of the right cylinder and feels like its not firing on the left its not a carb issue because i switched them from right to left no difference, also not a tors issue dont have that, not spark either because i switched plug wires and no change from cylinder to cylinder. so im thinking the worst maybe a dead cylinder? i took the pipe off and looked up there the bore looks good and from what i can see of the piston it looks alright to. so im clue less. its got me stumped. Im thinking maybe not enough compression? when the bike does get running and you ring it out a bit the left side back fires and you can see flames from the back of the carb. also its pretty hard starting anyway now you know as much as me. im totally lost maybe one of you guys has an idea.
alright well ill just keep them on for now and see how she runs, i will get pipes for it so thats not big deal, is a 145 a good main jet you think or im i going to lean? id rather be rich than lean.
Turns out there 34 mm carbs will they not work at all with my set up? i think im gonna go buy the air screw and another 145 main and try that unless some one thinks thats not gonna work/bad idea. or should i just be looking for a set of stockers?
Okay guys thanks im think im gonna go with 145 mains and try that, and also look for an air leak, couldn't see one when i was looking at the other day but its got a dumb ass boost bottle some im sure its leaking from that where its going into the intake. how do i figure out what size of carbs i have? just measure them?
Hey guys havent been on in a long time but i just bought another banshee and i need some help, that guy had dual kenith pj's on it set up with stock pipes and aftermarket slincers, the bike didnt run worth shit, so i took the carbs apart first the one air/fuel mixture screw was missing and there is differnt jetting in both the one has a 145 main and the other has a 175 main ? that cant be right? also the piolts are diffrent couldnt make out what they where though. anyway i was just wondering what a good base line to get thing thing going would be? anyhelp would be awsome i wanna rip lol. also has no air box just k&n clamp on's
-Stock pipes
--K&N clamp on's
-kenith PJ's
-Pro desing intake and "boost bottel"
