Suggestions on what water pump kit to order ? Also what clutch kit to order ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

All, I removed my engine last night to reseal the case and shifter lever seal that was leaking. When I drained the oil it came out light gray and milky. Does anyone know what has failed or what I need to replace ? My guess was the water pump? I bought this banshee not running and it had been sitting for a while. I got it running and found it was only running on the left cylinder. I did some research on here and found the reed valve on the right side was bad. I replace both and put it back together and it seemed to run pretty strong but I found the right side case leaking fluid and the shifter pedal. The only modifications I know that it has is a Trinity Pro TT Stage IV cool head (stamped on side of case and top of head) and a Trinity Stage IV 2 to 1 intake. It has a single Mikuni TM carb on it But I do not know what size because those are the only markings on it. Also throttle has been changed to a Honda thumb throttle. I want to bring this Banshee back to life the right way and need suggestions on what all I should do while I have the engine out? Is there a better carb I can get for it ? Anyone near St Joe, Missouri rebuild these ? Thanks in advance for the help! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What would be considered good versus bad compression on these? What is the most accurate way to test the compression on these ? Hook up the tester in that hole and kick it over ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the help! I have ordered new reeds and cages. Would this cause that cylinder to be dead to? When I look in the intake side I can see both cylinders/pistons the left side looks clean but the right side (Dead cylinder/side with broken reed valve) looks to have dirty oily substance on the liner walls. I turned it over by hand and didnt notice any scoring in the liner and the stroke looked good. Do you think I have another issue?

Update! All i was doing some more trouble shooting last night. I replaced the CDI with the correct part number for 1996. started it, no change. still only runs on the left side cylinder with the right staying cold and it wants to high rev when it does start still. I removed the carb again to make sure it had no debris in it, it was good. Does anyone know how i can determine the carb size on this Mikuni TM carb? it has not markings parts # or anything only says Mikuni TM? I decided to pull the manifold and found the reed valve on the right hand side had a broke flap leaving that cylinder open all the time. I am ordering a new set today. Would this be the culprit of all my issues or do i have more things I should check for? Also suggestions on the best reed valves to buy? All the help and support is appreciated !

Update! I have cleaned the fuel tank and carb. I pulled the pipes off and made sure no debris was inside, it was clear. Any suggestions on the best way to run a leak down test with a 2 into 1 manifold ? Also suggestions on where I should setup the adjustments on my carb to start out? It is a Mikiuni TM?

All I am in need of some help! I came across a 1996 banshee barn find that I am trying to bring back to life. I have wrenched on bikes before but this is my first banshee. Here is what I know about it. It sat in a barn for a few years. I brought it home and cleaned it all up and found it has the following modifications. The head says Trinity Pro TT and the top cover says Stage IV, It has a 2 to 1 intake on it that also says Stage IV, Mikuni TM Carb (Which i called trinity and this is not the carb that came with the original setup they sell) the throttle cable going to it is a Honda setup that someone put on it, Full LRD exhaust. So far i have flushed the fuel system, cleaned the carb, replaced the 3R4 rubber boot from carburetor to the intake it was weather cracked and replaced the spark plugs . it was missing the CDI and a buddy had one that plugged into it #3GG-10 (off of a 1997 i believe) i looked into it and it says this is incorrect for a 1996 but both plugs get spark. I was able to get it running but it is only running on the left hand side cylinder the pipe on the right side stays cold. The bike has idled fine a few times but them wants to high rev on its own. Can you guys please help me with these issues on what to check or things to look for? i have heard air leaks? Low compression (What compression would be considered in spec if i need to test it) also would you recommend changed the carb and cable ? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
