idle accelaration

[sheeloco]

hey guys i'm getting ready for the season so i put my banshee back together, and when i have it idling it will rev on its own and when i ride it around it feels like the gas throttle gets stuck and will rev on its own. any ideas?

What kind of set up are you running? My advice, take the carbs back out and clean the piss out of them. Possible air leak? let us know

im running an 03 banshee and i've had a 350 drag port job and i have pretty much all the work to it: cpi's, coolhead, v force reeds, 34 mikunis etc... i've cleaned them out twice now, all the way down to the bowls with carb cleaner. and i don't seem to see or hear any leaks

You won't hear or see the air leaks. You'll need to do a leak down test to find them.

Need to look up on here about making yourself a leak down kit. Very cheap (pvc pipe)

 

Pressurize to a max of 6 psi, wait an hour or so, if standing test proves to show a lower psi....you have a leak. Spray some soapy bubbles if so, and it will tell u where if really small.

 

A lazy way is to spray some carb start lightly around your intake area and engine as it idles. If it revs up, u have a leak.
