I agree. Thats whats great about this site. Hope you get it solved before the trip is over.

Ordered 280 and 25 jets have not put in yet, still unsure if im to go up or down on pilot because it seems like no change either way when adjusting scews (air & idle) but it runs good WOT but still no idle. I know someone else will benifit from my frustration (besides my liquor store) after we solve this prob. First time jetting for me and the shee has to have the right jetting or its night and day.Wish i hade been doing all the work on her my self so i would know more about her but her i go...After i fix thie jetting ill advance my timing with the DIY plate mod.Hope next time in Glamis i can kill some raptors on the hill !!!!!

Ok first off Thank you guys for your help.I filled the carbs down even more put it back toghther it still wont idel without cable adjustment but now it runs good on top but lags untill powerband kicks in and my idle screws are allthe way in so im going to go down a size on the pilot to stock 25. Jetting is somthing im trying to understand but having lots of trouble so let me know if im going in the right direction.Shee still starts up with one kick no choke! cold!

Well I have been banging my head trying to get the shee back to life still no luck. How far should my idle screws go in the throttle? Right now they go in about half way threw the cut in the slide I want to take more off the carb so the screw can go in deeper but not ruin my carbs.As of now i have to use the cable adjust on the bars to get idle with screws all the way in

checked it out they are in right.

Just some more info Im at 1400' but i also ride Glamis wich is closer to sea level. Will i need to adjust my jetting or is 1500' no big deal?I would like to be jetted somewhere in between for the best of both worlds if possiable.

I removed the carbs and washed with soap and water then sprayed them down with some carb cleaner before install but i cant say i pulled out the idle jet just the mains.So im in the process of doing everything over again but this time ill pull all jets. I will start with the idle screw depth then clean and install or does everyone agree i should rejet the main or remove the airbox.The bogging is from 1/4 throttel to WOT if that helps anyone.

Thanks for the replys! Well i was just looking in to that .The idle screws do touch the slides when compleatly screwed in but they dont lift them very much at all so ill take them off and grind them both down a lil more.As for the mains what do you suggest take the box with vents out,or leave and go down on mains? THANKS AGAIN

I also have t5s and what i believe to be the toomey kit with vents in the air box and different set of needle jets.Im going to tear the carbs off again and start over tomarrow HOPFULLY someone can help or i fix it myself

Ok ,I have a 2000 banshee stock motor/carbs,boysen reeds,spacers and boost bootle(I know...LOL)k&n single filter with airbox no lid main jet 300 pilot 27.5 carb needle clip 4th down from blunt end, sync from jeff @ F.A.S.T. tors eliminator kit installed so cal temps 1450' elevation Now The shee starts right up will not idel and the air screws seem to do nothing. When i pull the choke it dies and when trying to ride it is bogged down real bad seems to load up. Any suggestions from you pros is greatly appriciated
