Jacob10 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I recently bought a 04 banshee twin 350. It will start right up with little problems, however, if I do not keep reving the motor it will die instantly. I have cleaned both carbs and readjusted the floats from a prior leak that was no problem fixing. Next is the problem with it bogging as I accelerate at a high speed. It has a lag in the throttle as well as cutting out. I do not have a housing for the air filters but I have yet to drive it through water or on a dirt track. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Bennett69 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 are your carbs synced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacob10 Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Yes both carbs have been synced perfectly when I cleaned the carbs. I've read it may be the fuel filter is dirty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Yes both carbs have been synced perfectly when I cleaned the carbs. I've read it may be the fuel filter is dirty?If that same set up at one point was running properly and is now giving you those issues you are on the right track. Cleaned and synced the carbs is a good start. Are the slides correct? Try checking the strainer in the tank and cleaning the petcock. If there are still issues, look at the plugs and begin checking over the rest of the ignition system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwriter Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 X 2 on the carb slides. If the left slide is in the right carb and vice versa, it will run like crap. When you look in the back of the carbs, the cutaway on the bottom of the slides is supposed to be towards the filters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastbanshee8 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 How many turns open are your air mixture screws, and are both of them the same number of turns open? Did you pull the pilot jets out of the carbs, and make sure they are 100% clean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacob10 Posted June 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I will try everything that was mentioned and hope all goes well! Thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
