Banshee Backfire

[Joey80]

Ok so heres the deal, I just put the motor back together. I had to put in a new transmission. I put it all back together and the bike won't start. Put a new coil on and now it wants to fire. I got it to run once yesterday but won't idle. As soon as i turn it off, there was fuel leaking from the overflow tube. Now, I tried to pull start it today and when i do, the right cylinder backfires and blows the exhaust pipe off. Any help on where to start here?? I'm new to the banshees and could use a little bit of guidance. Thanks in advance.

Hey, I'm no master tech like some of these guys, but I know enough to get me in trouble. Try checking the carb slides. They could be in backwards. There is a halfmoon cutout at the bottom of the slides, and those cutouts need to be facing towards the back of the bike. I seem to remember this happening to my bike before. Hope that helps.

If fuel is comming out of your carbs you need to adjust your float height. And there is probly a ton of gas in the crankcase. Check your plugs I bet they are wet
