2003banshee21 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 Hey guys, I havnt posted in a long time.. But I hope you'll still help me out.. Ok here is my situation.. I have a 2003 banshee and My axle bearings were shot in my carrier so I parked her in my garage and kinda just didn't bother with her because I was having surgery which wouldn't let Me ride so I le her sit for 3 months with near no gas in the tank.. But I finally fixed her the other day and I added fresh gas and changed out the plugs.. Took a while to get her to run but she started. I left her running for maybe 5min with the choke on then turned the choke off. She revd up fine but when I looked at the left exhaust she was spitting oil.. What would case this? Quote
robert0762 Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 The choke richens up the air/fuel mixture so by you running it on choke for 5 min it could have been loading that cyl up with a lot of extra fuel that didnt get burned. Mine always looks rich on idle anyway. i would take her for a good ride and see what happens. if its still spitting a lot of oil clean carbs check jetting and silencer packing. Quote
firebanshee Posted January 25, 2010 Report Posted January 25, 2010 Sounds like you need to just go ride it and clean it out, idling your bike espetcially with your choke on, can cause the fuel to puddle up in the crank case and in the expansion chambers. Quote
2003banshee21 Posted January 25, 2010 Author Report Posted January 25, 2010 Ok so just g out and ride her around and see if she cleans up a tad.. So easy and a fun way to possibly fix it.. It was cold the day I started it with the choke and if I didn't have it on she died quick.. All else fails I'll cleans carbs and check pipes! It's raining today sonidk if I'll get to it but I will asap! Thanks guys! Quote
