thrill-billy85 Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 (edited) yeah i think everyone has had this exact problem at one point or another... the good news is, you only forget the choke tube once... PS QUIT RIDING IT LIKE IT IS>>>> you'll blow up/ melt down the motor heres a pic of it http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.rb-designs.com/Banshee%2520carb%252001.jpg&imgrefurl=http://bansheehq.com/forums/index.php%3Fshowtopic%3D135516&usg=__yNISqZblgsSx_xBlO_k2GCa5XaM=&h=450&w=668&sz=65&hl=en&start=1&zoom=1&tbnid=he5pgcbtJa0OLM:&tbnh=93&tbnw=138&ei=tXfNTYHRH8W3twf5st3xDQ&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dbanshee%2Bchoke%2Btube%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Doff%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1440%26bih%3D737%26tbm%3Disch&um=1&itbs=1 Edited May 13, 2011 by thrill-billy85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

03banshee20 Posted May 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 No lol im not retarded i know the choke tube isnt missing. And the bowls i think are on the right side how would i tell if they wouldnt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrill-billy85 Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 did you ever figure it out??? i said the choke tube, because thats EXACTLY what happens when youre missing your choke tube... not to mention thats about the only thing you could have disturbed when you replaced your cable. as far as the bowls being on the wrong side..... if it started fine before and you didnt touch them since... then thats not your problem most likely. if you did have to take the bowls off to replace a throttle cable.... you are a retard lol another thing to check... make sure your slides are in the correct carb... if you switch them, they will in the carb backwards. i think the cut-out on the bottom of the slide is supposed to be on the filter side of the carbs...
