Yes I went a checked my compression, that's when I realized I had little to no spark.. After my stator comes in ill try that and if still no good ill be back for your guys tips! Appreciate it everybody
-
This is NOT my video, but it almost seemed to be doing this... But now like I said.. Not even enough spark to start.. TORS Is removed
-
Well when the thing is cold I can't start it either. It used to kinda run when u kicked it hard but now no/super weak spark
-
Either way, i will consider rebuilding it soon since the kit is only $180.. But it should still run at 110 psi so that's not the reason it's not running. My question was that it kept loosing spark then flooding out and I'd have to kick it super hard to get a semi strong spark... Right now if I kick it super hard I get just a tiny YELLOW spark.. Defintally issue but it's not the top end I'm worrying about yet..

Ok well when the stator comes in ill put it in an hopefully it has spark.
-
Why else wouldn't it have spark? And when it was running the thing pulls great goes super fast
-
Nope.. Blows my finger right off the spark plug hole and getting around 110 psi each cylinder. Now here's my problem now.. NO SPARK before I kept loosing spark and now I have none. Like I said earlier I thought it was the stator and I have one on the way... I still think that's the issue.

Plugs were changed recently. I could adjust the carbs rich or lean and the thing always is hard to start. Ill do a compression test later today. New coils too

You have to kick really hard
-
Honestly didnt even care to test it out.. Just ordered one for like 40$ on eBay. It only did that bogging thing for a bit and I let more air in by turning the screw on the carb out and it seemed a lot better. Just now it's hard to start like I said.. Also since the spark I'm guessin isn't strong enough that's why this thing keeps flooding out. Got pull started the other day and held full throttle while it was cranking over from being pulled and it cleared up and hauled down the rode like no other haha I'm totally confused on what to do.. Hopefully this stator helps the issue..

Well I have a 87 banshee and it used to run fine.. It was used a week at the dunes and after 6 days it started being very hard to start. It has good compression, new reeds, you have to kick it hard to start it and it almost wants to bog kinda but you pull the clutch in and it stops the bogging. Sounds like fuel issue but its not trust me. The headlights are as dim as a candle and its hard to start when it's hot too. I believe when I ride it, it's loosing spark and dies out. I ordered a new stator last night hoping that resolves my issue. What do you think it is? I've also been told a dirty flywheel? It might be since it was at the dunes for 6 days
Banshee hard to start?

Thought I'd update the forum since I received my new 30$ eBay stator.. I installed it and all went smooth. After pulling the flywheel off I saw the old stator was all loose and threads were messed up.. Studded them and all is how it should be now.. Checked for spark and...... BIG BLUE FAT SPARK I was very happy lol reassembled whole thing and 2nd kick runs like a dream.. Until the pick up coil came off its little holder.. But I'll have that repaired with some poxy or something tommorow. Glad it wasn't such a huge problem and headlights work now too.. Smokes evenly from both pipes now too unlike before. Thanks for everyone's advice and if your having the same issue... Replace your stator, sand down your flywheel magnets if they look rough.
