Banshee starts then dies

[10milmike]

OK, Guys I am lost. My cheetah fires first kick then dies about 2 sec later, I check the spark, I have spark, new coil, new reeds, so what would cause this? I even tested the cdi from the other banshee i have, and it still does the same thing. Starts first kick then dies 2 sec later, I took off the head and looked at the pistons, they look fine, Top end is only a year old, with 155 psi in each jug. so what could this be?????

i have heard of stators causing this, the build up a charge, will fire a few times, then not put out any juice for a few min, then gain enough charge to do it all over again.

check those carbs. and maybe a frayed wire touching something ?

yea, i forgot to mention, tors can cause this as well

I doubt you have TORS, but yeah that can do it. Sounds like the pickup coil gap to me, or possibly loose flywheel.

No tors on a 535 Cheetah, with 39Mm carbs.

Was the machine running well and then it started doing this? If so then the answer is electrical. Especially if it will not even stay running with the choke on

I know its electrical, I tryed my CDI box from my other Banshee, and stator, still does the same thing. I had the wire harness redone, that is the only thing I have not checked yet.

From the guys last comment he probably working on elect maybe waiting on parts. (Custom harness maybe.  oem elect components can be pricey. Don’t use aftermarket!
