MattBerghauser Posted September 14, 2010 Report Posted September 14, 2010 Hey guys. So I've been lurking for some time now and figured I'd finally sign up. Right now I have a 1997 banshee mostly stock with bills pipes, boost bottle, and K&N filter. I Have a little trouble with it at the moment though. It seems to idle up and down from time to time and it also seems to bog out. I've checked the compression and it's at 116 on the left and 120 on the right. I don't know whats going on. any help would be great! Thanks and great site! Quote
12 0 Clock P I M P Posted September 14, 2010 Report Posted September 14, 2010 Welcome sounds like you may have an air leak somewhere....will need to do a leakdown test... check to make sure carbs are in sync.....meaning the slides are equal throughout the throttle movement up and down Quote
MattBerghauser Posted September 14, 2010 Author Report Posted September 14, 2010 Thanks for the reply but, what's a leakdown test? I have synced the carbs by eye already. It just started doing this the other day. Quote
T_Shee Posted September 14, 2010 Report Posted September 14, 2010 theres a right up in repair section i think on how to do leak down. look real good around that boost bottle for tears in your intakes. they are prone to causing leaks. i would suggest getting a crossover tube and ditching the bottle when you get a chance.

madjimmax Posted September 14, 2010 Report Posted September 14, 2010 Welcome to the one and only BHQ. X2 on ditching the boost bottle and doing a leak down test. Quote
MattBerghauser Posted September 14, 2010 Author Report Posted September 14, 2010 Well i did as you guys said and I found a small tear in the intake boot. I'm pretty sure that is my problem. Thanks!! Quote
locogato11283 Posted September 14, 2010 Report Posted September 14, 2010 Awesome man. There are plenty of used parts floating around BansheeHQ. Don't go buy anything new! Quote
