Screaming Meemie Posted October 19, 2012 Report Posted October 19, 2012 Starting to reach my wits end with my jetting... mods & elevation in my signature & im looking for any tiny suggestions on how to get my baby to rip again. i moved down 2 sizes on mains & moved the clip up 1 position from the middle on the needles & left the pilot stock (screws 3 turns out) upon moving from 900ft to 4900ft. she's still really rich & im spitting oil out the silencers & even leaking from where the pipes connect to the head, yet idles & runs OK smaller pilot? main again? I just wanna run right! Ambient temps are super variable right now too... thinking about waiting until winter sets in & then tuning for that. Usually about 10-35 degrees & dry as a bone here in the winter, if that helps. sorry for the spam, just lookin for a lifeline. thanks again fellas. Quote

Screaming Meemie Posted October 22, 2012 Author Report Posted October 22, 2012 40:1 ratio w/Amsoil Dominator synthetic. I looked at that thread & there are a handful of riders at my elevation, but unfortunately theyre all way more modded than i am... i guess my elevation is about that of st.anthony. haha. choke tube is connected fa sho.

2strokeshees Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Are u using fresh gas or could it be old, I made the mistake of leaving gas in there for about 3 months, and the bike ran like shit, I had to clean tank, lines, and a real good carb clean and that fixed the issue. You would be surprised how easy it is for these to get gumbed up. Good luck to you. Quote
Screaming Meemie Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Posted October 25, 2012 you can mix that oil at 50:1 which is suggested by amsoil. are your plug black? you can be running rich, but you could also have a spark issue that isn't burning everything. first check your spark and see how strong it is. get some new plugs and do a chop and see how it looks. i'll give that a shot with my next mix, check the sparks too, i havent done that yet. thanks!

Screaming Meemie Posted October 30, 2012 Author Report Posted October 30, 2012 Good sparks, 50:1 & still rich. Im running ngk br8es plugs, maybe i need to go 1 or 2 steps hotter? Anybody have some knowledge about near 5k ft. elevation tuning for cold weather? Quote

Banshee Chad Posted November 3, 2012 Report Posted November 3, 2012 I'm very similar mods (hardly any), looks like only diff is that I got cpi pipes. I'm at a 270 now, and I think I still need to go down to a 260... Silencers tips still get a coating of oil. Id think that with fmf, ud be a little leaner, try starting at a 260? What's ur main at now? Quote
01bansheefox Posted November 24, 2012 Report Posted November 24, 2012 I just bought a banshee in Nevada at 4800ft and it was dialed in pretty good it had stock carbs, Toomey T6' pro flow 1 in to 2 filter with a WB boost bottle Its on 3rd clip, 25 pilot and 250 mains, air screw is 1.5 turns out Quote
