won't idle when cold

[tyler73]

my 2006 banshee won't idle when its cold more then 3 seconds  but when its warm it idles just fine it also  sounds weird at the beginning of a rev when cold like its falling on its face  and some times it dies when i do that  the only mods on the bike is t-5 pipes and silencers, v-force3 reeds k&n filters with no air box at all  and I'm not sure about what is all done to the carbs besides tors removed

Sounds lean then. Pull the jets. Should be a 27.5 minimum. Might possibly need a 30 if your up north and get really cold.

i don't know the jet size and it has not been to cold out yet maybe 55* in the morning 

[sheerider11]

So check the jet sizes.

Does it idle when cold if you leave the choke pulled out? Need to look at see what size main and pilot is in the carbs.

only ride when it's warm

when it finally starts up the choke automatically  goes   in by itself

lol yeah  the whole idea is i want it to idle while it warms up so i can get my sand rail fired up and ready to go why the banshee is warming up with out me on it trying to keep it running  till it warms up

Hold the choke out half way with your hand and see if it stays running. Pretty much sounds like your pilot is just too small. Really need to pull the jets out and see what is in it.

how do i pull the jets out can i do it with carb on bike and  does anybody know what elevation gap are they good for like the jets in my sand rail carb are 0 feet to 3000 feet

You need to remove the carbs to take the jets out and make sure you only remove one at a time that way you do not swap slides or get anything mixed up between them. You should probably have a 27.5 pilot and somewhere around a 320 main jet in the bike with the mods you listed

ok i ordered a new choke plunger how do i remove the old one and put new one in do i need to remove the carb or can it be done with carb on

Brilliant. Did you check the jets like everyone told you to?

He can't figure the plunger out how's he going to find the jets.
