    If there is no air leaks then try running it with 32.5 pilots w/ 310 mains and the clip on the needle in the middle and 1.5 turns out on the air screw. 

    This is close to what I just did. Atm it has a 32.5 pilot and a 32 main and the clip is on the middle. Now it’s fine on top end and is doing it on low end breaking up and sputtering. Any recommendations and what to try next? Thanks

    carb issue for sure, 

    check the tube between the carbs is not cracked and seated properly.

    If that is it, are the slides in the correct carb? swapped side to side is BAD

    have you changed the pilot to a 27.5? if not, do that, and while you have the carbs off put them in a can of carb dip overnight.

    Pull them and clean every orifice with brake cleaner and blow out everything with compressed air.

    I would run torch tip cleaners through main and pilot jets, just as an SOP thing for when I go through carbs...

     

    Once assembled and back on the bike

    LIGHTLY seat the air screws, then turn them out 1.5 turns as a baseline.

    eyeball the "sync" before you assemble the rest of the intake, tank, fuel lines

     

    and again at this point I would remove the petcock and flush out the tank, clean the screen filter on the petcock and put it back together....

    new fuel lines and filter(s) drop tank on, prime fuel system and fire it up to see if it is fixed.... It idles and revs out good without load? Final assemble and take it for a putt....

    Tube between carbs is new and seated well.Slide are in the right carbs. Have not changed the pilots to 27.5 still waiting on them but got in 30 pilots and tried them with no difference. Have cleaned every orifice etc you could eat off them lol. Pitcock and Tank has been cleaned. Is hard to get to start but once it starts it idles and revs out fine when sitting. And takes off fine in first but once it hits that spot in every gear it won’t go past it but I rode it and pulled the choke and it will fly but if you don’t pull it, it maybe goes 25 max in high gear. It did have 28 mains and 25 pilots changed them to 29 main and 30 pilots while I wait on the others but which those didn’t change it. Appreciate you trying to help me figure it out.

    Change one thing at a time.... write down any changes corresponding to the "fix"

    sometimes 1 thing is fucky, most times it is multiple things causing the hard start/rough running/stall....

     

    Keep

    It

    Simple

    Stupid 

     

    KISS principle for troubleshooting and repairs...

     

     

    Oh ik and that’s what I’ve been doing is one thing at a time then checking to see if it got better or worse. One thing I found it will get past that spot if driving it on choke so that points to a fuel issue correct? 

  4. I’m a first time banshee owner and having trouble tuning and jetting. Currently have 29.0 Mains and 30 pilots with needle on 3rd slot from the top.  bike will idle fine but when taking off will not unless pulled on half choke so that tells me it’s needing more gas. So should I go up in pilots and mains and or down on the needle to make it richer? Banshee is .40 over vforce 4 reeds and fmf gold series pipes and pod filter. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Ok

    read this,

     

    and next

    read this again

     

    After you understand this buy 260-320 mains (if you have the jets great) 27.5-32.5 pilots

    Get a longer aftermarket needle set (i like the toomey needles)

    I have a similar set up to yours, My bike likes 280 main 27.5 pilot with the needle 2 slots from the tip.

     

    Buy 10 sets of plugs. change jets to your "baseline" and do a plug chop. post pictures of the resulting plug for review (and the inevitable peanut gallery comments)

    Beat place to order the pilots?

    Okay thanks for the info will let ya know what happens 

  7. Okay I just rebuilt my engine New crank,New pistons etc. Installed Vforce 4 reeds and timing +4 it also has fmf gold series which where on it before rebuild. Is idling fine and runs fine until it get to a certain spot and just won’t go any faster  it’s no where near as fast as it was. I’ve tried making less and more rich with no change,Gave it more and less air and still no change. Carbs are so clean you could eat off them. I’m at a loss onto what to try. Could I need to rejet my carb because of the reeds or is it something else. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

    I'd get in touch with Brian at West Coast ATV Parts or Bill at Driveline. Both can put together a good package to fit your needs and budget. Most of the "kits" you'll find on eBay/Amazon/etc.. contain a lot of junk parts that will leave you in worse shape in the long run. The most cost effective way would be to have your jugs bored up a size with Wiesco pistons, driveline clutch and driveline or rebuilt West Coast crank. The best bang for your buck if you want to upgrade would be a driveline top end. Either of the guys I mentioned can do any of that for you.

    Okays thanks. Best way to get ahold of them? 

  9. Banshee Runs fine and has plenty of power just serviced yesterday and took it on a ride went and started it up this morning and my trans oil won’t even touch the stick and It blew oil out at the muffler connector. I’m pretty sure a seal in the engine probably took a dump on me. Any ideas to what seal it could be in the engine? Thanks for any help 

  10. My stator is showing 110 ohms for the pickup coil and ignition coil is 21.5 ohms I’m aware the ignition is between 13.7-20.5 ohms it being 21.5 does this mean my stator needs to be replaced? Thanks for any help
