wire4money Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 I can't seem to find any info on the web to help, mostly because my banshee is stock except for a trinity 2 into 1, and foam filter (twin air??), lid removed. I am at 4200 ft elevation. It came to me from sea level with 180 main, 52 pilot, EEK needle on 3rd slot. It has a PWK on it, but I don't know which one. It idles good, spits oil all over the garage floor, seems to have good top end (I haven't doon a plug chop yet), but has an off idle bog. I replaced the 52 pilot with a 48, and it doesn't seem to help. It still spits oil, and has a slight bog off idle, then all hell breaks loose, and pulls the front wheels off the ground. I am not too worried about top speed, but the off idle bog sucks. Any suggustions? Quote
wire4money Posted May 30, 2010 Author Report Posted May 30, 2010 what is your premix? also where is the oil coming out of? maybe time for some new gaskets and seals 32:1 amsoil; 92 octane non-ethanol; oil is spitting out of exhaust Quote
Snopczynski Posted May 30, 2010 Report Posted May 30, 2010 the pilot jet should be a 42 or a 45 at sea level. So you have a pilot jet in that thing big enough to drive a car through. The needle is probably also too rich, and may need to be a different size. Quote

Trinity couldn't help me much, they said they didn't know where to go with stock pipes. Quote

DEK would probably be the right sixe for your elevation, but you more than likely need a smaller pilot jet. This is one of those things that you have to go off feel and make adjustments. Quote
