bizanchee Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 ok so heres the deal, when i bought my t-5's and installed their jet kit it was nice out probably well 50 degrees outt, the banshee ran great light brown plugs on 280 mains. Now that it is so cold out shee wont run right, toomey suggests 290 or 300 (for winter in glamis) but how cold is wainter in glamis? i mean its 18 degrees out right now and i dont wanna fry my top end, i bought 310 mains today....should that be sufficent? and im thinking on moving my jet needle clip richer one groove? does this sound ok? thanks for the input guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoin39 Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 310-320 should be fine, do a plug ck to know for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BansheeEaterKXF Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 310s are a good start but i think you'll end up run 300's and dont touch any thing else do a plug check even if you think its running right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincster Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 I see you are at sea level. What air filter setup are you running. I would not listen to Toomeys instructions, they are off. I run the 2:1 air filter system and am at 370 mains with 30 pilots and all I run is at Glamis. Bike runs great. Oh yeah, winter at Glamis is average 65F during the day.

ScreaminShee01 Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 65 degrees would be so nice now i cant stand this 10 degree weather! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bizanchee Posted January 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 ok so today i installed the 310 mains, moved the jet needle clip setting one groove richer (now the 5'th groove on the toomey jet kit needle) and it ran alot better! smoked a hell of alot but it ran better lol, however i almost killed myself test riding it.........in 3'rd gear the engine revved to the moooon and i had no controll over power, later to find out my right carb is sticking open when i apply full throttle, only sometimes though damn i cant figure why it is sticking. oh and i am running toomey's set up with the uni and air box vents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
