       I’ve been messing around with banshee’s for a really long time now. When I took on this job it was a non- running banshee for 4+ years. I know that it’s not the carbs. I just recently ripped them both apart all way to an empty shell and ultra sonic cleaned them, the bowls and installed all new parts all the way down to the new floats. I did all the testing ( compression & leak down ) and everything was fine. From what I can see through my camera scope the top of the pistons have a average amount of carbon deposit on the top of them. I even checked and reset the pick up on the flywheel. It has a very fat blue spark. Wiring harness is in great condition for its age. Today I put on a different set of fmf pipes ( SST’s ) from another banshee I’m working on and it ran really good and then I put the fmf gold series back on and it ran rough. I know the jetting is different from pipe to pipe.The packing in the silencers look to be good condition. I also installed some boyesen super stock carbon fiber reeds and intake gaskets because the reed pedals that were on there were brittle. It has a fresh tank of 93 octane and casters 927 mixed 32:1. So as of right now I’m stumped over this. Anyone can chime in with there opinion on this issue. 
     

    Thanks 
     

    @DeetsI tried to talk him into a the exhaust system you have for sale and I even showed him what they looked like but he’s said no dice. He said fishing season is coming soon. 

    Ever get em cleaned out?

    You took more off in this pic. I hope you throw it on a dyno to see what you ended up with.

    It looks like more from that angle, both jugs are close to identical. 
    Never gave a dyno much thought, would be happy with a small gain. Fuel economy is still important to me, otherwise these jugs would look a lot different.
