CarlosD Posted March 20, 2004 Report Posted March 20, 2004 I was just sent here by a couple of friends that say this is the expert place on Banshees. Im having a bit of trouble so I was hoping someone could guide me in the right direction. I bought a used 95 Banshee from a close friend that had taken extremely good care of it. I took it out last weekend and used the remaining gas that was left in it (pump 91 with who knows what type of oil). I went out and bought a 5 gallon drum of VP Racing Fuel "red" 105 octance and Yamalube 2R oil. I went with the 32:1 ratio (4 ozs per gallon). I mixed it up today and took it around the block but now its idling like crap. Im having a hard time getting it started and when it does start unless I keep the throttle about half way it dies. When switching fuel do you have to do anything to the bike? Or should it be fine? This is a bummer as I wanted to take it out this weekend. Any help would be appreciated. If any of you live near Indio (Palm Desert/Palm Springs) and do repair I would make it worth your while. Thanks in advance. - Carlos Quote
