llehctim23 Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 I have a 2004 Banshee and having troubles. The motor is all stock as far as I know. Just picked it up from a dealer today who claimed "It has a slight blog in the bottom end but other than that runs fine." Well, there is a blog in the bottom end but its more than a slight blog. It almost seems like the throttle reaction is behind but I dont know. I just rode it out of town a couple miles and when I give it gas it seems like it takes a couple seconds to actually take off. But it does blog too, mostly in the bottom end. Does anyone have any ideas here? Or is it just time for a rebuild? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llehctim23 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 I also noticed it starting to leak coolant from underneath the motor when I parked it today. Wether or not that has anything to do with my other problems or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 What kind of retard shit fuck numb nuts dealer did go to? Did you buy it from them or did they "work" on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llehctim23 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 My local yamaha dealer. I just had them run a test to see what was wrong and they just gave me a few different things it could be. Like low compression. But they didnt help much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 So... they didn't actually do a compression check? They just said, well, uh, gee, we're no expert but it could be low compression? I hope they didn't charge you for that wonderful piece of information. So, do a compression check, clean carbs and see what jets are in there. Do a leakdown test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

llehctim23 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Compression was 94 or so I think. They did do that. I know it is low but would it affect it that much? I have had the carbs cleaned twice and still nothing has helped. Cleaned the reeds and checked all the fuel lines too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolySheet Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 I just had to re-hone my cylinders because of a low end BOG. They only had 105psi in each side and it ran like crap. I just put it back together about an hour ago and now it has 125psi and runs great. Point is, low compression can do exactly that. But as always do a leak down, then a compression test. After that check the jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
llehctim23 Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 I guess I just didnt think it would cause it to bog so much from that. Im guessing that is what I will need to do too but I will try to figure it out from here. I am new to the banshee world so I am still learning everything lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Low compression means blow by is occurring. AKA, the combustion is sneaking by the worn ring/cylinder seal.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jereme6655 Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 at 94 psi....that is getting into the realm of not even being able to kick start it anymore.....I can't believe a dealership would even sell something like that.......
