Bansheejm Posted July 17, 2017 Report Posted July 17, 2017 so yesterday was the first time I took my banshee to the sand dunes 10 mins into riding and it started smoking bad from one side I noticed my coolant was low too so I added coolant and i can hear like water sipping thru the head..... I saw all the bolts had came loose on head , and it has one of those cool heads ..Why did it come loose am I suppose to add some of that thread lock ....i just bought this quad and it has been a headache Quote
ginger Posted July 17, 2017 Report Posted July 17, 2017 it could be not enough octane, when was the last time you checked them? Quote
Bansheejm Posted July 17, 2017 Author Report Posted July 17, 2017 I never checked them I just bought the quad like 2 weeks ago thinking it was good but I was wrong all these little things and problems are coming out who ever put aftermarket parts did a shitty job Quote
awblackmamba Posted July 18, 2017 Report Posted July 18, 2017 most banshee owners are hacks or lack proper funds and make it work lol 1 Quote
ginger Posted July 18, 2017 Report Posted July 18, 2017 very true. easiest way to tell is if there is a boost bottle on it. tell tail sign of someone who doesnt know what they are doing. 1 Quote
awblackmamba Posted July 18, 2017 Report Posted July 18, 2017 If it's a cool head check if they actually changed the studs to the longer proper studs Sent from my SM-G900W8 using Tapatalk Quote

JUSTWANNARACE Posted July 19, 2017 Report Posted July 19, 2017 Also of you are using A-corn nuts make sure the studs are in deep enough that the A-corn nut is not bottoming out before they seat. 1 Quote
Bansheejm Posted August 11, 2017 Author Report Posted August 11, 2017 well I had bought the o ring kit and studs with the acorn nuts kit that goes with this head but when I took off head I found that all head studs were not straight or bolted in all the way. So I took off the studs and found the middle two stripped and the rest where a mess I guess who ever had this bike before re threaded the holes but did a messed up job doing it some studs weren't even straight. I tried fixing the holes by helicoiling them but the holes where just to messed up to fix so i just ordered new jugs instead. Quote
trickedcarbine Posted August 11, 2017 Report Posted August 11, 2017 Could be a multitude of things. Milled stock head or cool head? What fuel? Was the excessive smoke white and sweet smelling? Quote
