2004BansheeGuy

I live in Fresno, and the weather has been great his week, mid 50s to blue skys. but usually pretty foggy in fresno, but to the mountains 30 miles north its been nice, my parents live at 2900 ft, going to their house with the banshee on monday so it should be fun. Well i hope to see you there, im tellin some buddies of mine so im not ridin solo lol im really looking forward to it.

My bad, i said either 12-13 or 19-20 but i mean. i will be there either the 9-10 or the 16-17. and seeing that presidents day is the 16th i guess ill be going the 16-17. i hope i see you guys there. if you see my banshee come up and say hi, ill make sure to do the same

o ok good deal, thanks for the help man

going out to Galmis sounds amazing, just thinking of a lot of banshees together sounds great. if i were to go i only have monday tuesday off so should i go 12th-13th or the 19th-20th. I know im still new to here but im not too far from glamis and it sounds fun to meet some of you guys.

Well the guy i bought it from said he ran stright 110 unleaded, and a lot fo people ahve said that its ok to run leaded it is just more of a lubricant because of the lead, so i ahve been running 50/50 mix VP C12 and 91 pump. Is that bad?

ALRIGHT!! :biggrin: So today i checked my spark plugs. They were a little dirty and wet but the same on both plugs. So i went and bought new ones BR8ES same as i was running. So i got home and put them in and started it up and it ran great! so hopefully it stays running good, i think i could have fouled a plug because i started funning leaded rather than unleaded..maybe but im just happy that its running great again THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP!!!!!!

thanks for the responses AKheathen, just the TORS move, the carb itself stays still but where the TORS meets the carb on the cap it is loose. i have not had a chance to check anything cuz i work til dark and i dont have the best place to work on it just a small area outside my appartment. but i have tuesday off so im going to check it that day. do you recomend the BR8 or BR9 spark plugs? Thanks Jason

Hey Everyone, I'm new to HQ, I've learned a lot from this site but i still have a ton more to learn so maybe you guys can help. So i bought my 2004 Banshee about 3 months ago and it has ran perfect the whole time, starts up first kick, no hesitation, no problems, nothing. And all of a sudden after riding it for about an hour this past Thursday 1/1/09 i started it up, idled fine, i took off and it didn't have the power and was backfiring from the left side. I turned it off and started it back up, it still did it so i just kept it off and loaded up. When i got home i started it and during idle its fine, but the left side does not blow near as much as the right and it will backfire it i give it throttle. What could this be? Anything at all would help me very much. I've been reading here and there and there seems to be a lot it can be, so first ill check my plugs. o ya the TORS on the left carb, it is kinda loose, it can move left to right about an inch by hand if i try and the right one is snug. I don't think this effected anything but two days before this a friend was riding for the first time and he was being stupid and doing donuts and he flipped it landing upside down, i ran over and put it back on its wheels, you can only imagine how upset i was, but it ran fine after that. Here are the mods if it helps 2004 Banshee Port and polished heads T6 full exhaust K&N air filters V force reeds --the guy i bought it from said he always ran straight 110 octane, i did a compression test and im at 135 each side so im running about 60/40 91 pump and VP C12 just to keep it similar to what he said, and he said he mixed 52:1 with Klotz Benol so i kept it that way. If you guys need any more info just let me know on here or email me at [email protected] I really appreciate any help. Thank You, Jason Costa Fresno, Ca
