05Special Posted March 17, 2016 Report Posted March 17, 2016 This is my 6th bike. I know banshees pretty well. I have s very hard sputter from 1/3 to full throttle. Bought bike real cheap. New reeds, cleaned the carbs, new air filters and even checked the gap on the pick up on the flywheel. I'm lost. I changed the mains and the pilots as well as adjusted the needle. I'm starting to think its electrical and has to do with spark. Gonna do a compression test later to just make sure I don't have a cracked sleeve or bad rings but the bike barely smokes. Any ideas guys???? I can always figure these bikes out and it's pissing me off.. Thanks 1 Quote
sheerider11 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Posted March 17, 2016 Ohm the caps? Correct plugs? Parking brake/tors disconnected? Coil good? Harness good? Pull the flywheel and shake it? Quote
pleepflop Posted March 17, 2016 Report Posted March 17, 2016 Just disconnect the thors and try again. I did that with mine and it worked great. Little black connection under tank on the left when sitting on the quad Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk Quote

sheerider11 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Posted March 17, 2016 Tors already removed. It has 30 mm carbsThe other stuff?What brand of carbs? what jets? Quote
05Special Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Posted March 17, 2016 Changing the coil, wires, and Cdi from my buddy's bike tonight. Fingers crossed Quote
05Special Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Posted March 17, 2016 What should I get for an ohm reading through the caps? Quote
sheerider11 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Posted March 17, 2016 What should I get for an ohm reading through the caps?I don't know. Check the manual. All that shit is in there Quote
kawa110 Posted March 17, 2016 Report Posted March 17, 2016 Tors---removed---from the carbs---is the brain or black box un plugged. Stupid a$$ throttle override Quote
05Special Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Posted March 18, 2016 Tors remove , 30mm keihen flatslide carbs. Clamp ons. 58 pilot, 160 mains. Ptr mids exhaust. I'm lost. Changed the coil also. Compression is good as well Quote
sheerider11 Posted March 18, 2016 Report Posted March 18, 2016 You have a 58 160? What kind of port work? That sounds like an awful lot of fuel for PT pipes. But I have seen smaller carbs want bigger jets. Quote
05Special Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Posted March 18, 2016 Yea I bought the bike like this. Quote
05Special Posted March 19, 2016 Author Report Posted March 19, 2016 I picked it up for 1100$. Can't really complain. Lot of little things I already fixed but can't figure this out. I'm not a fan of the pipes. At all. Good for a trail bike, that's about it. Quote
