Air Leak

[Im-Loving-It 69]

When I first start up my banshee its reving at its max. so hi were I have to shut it down. So I really can check for an air leak. it's not in the carb boots or reeds. Is there any other places that I can check for an air leak at. Also buy advancing the timing would that do any thing to it. And were do there hoes that come out of the side cover and the back of the case go to?

Please help me out.

try to check and see if you have enough free play on your throttle cable. it may be holding the carb slides up. also does it help if you pull the choke out while its running.

the slides are in backwards.. ill bet the bank on it either that or the idle screw are into far .. id start there ..

Reas11 sounds to be on to something.

I had my shee do that, and the TORS were messed up so I couldnt turn it off via key or switch

 

That sucked, but what it was.... The slides were being held up BARELY, like not even a noticable amount.

 

i would let as much slack as possible into your throttle cable where it goes into the thumb throttle assembly, start her up, and see if that helps.. If yes, just keep moving it in until it is where you want it.

Yeah my old carbs did that but it was more like the second i just barely touched the thuumb throttle my banshee revved to full throttle the slides were a little off easy fix and make sure your carbs are clean too

[bbluebanshee]

check for signs of oil all around your base gaskets. that is exactly what my shee did when i first bought it. i replaces the base gaskets, and no more revving out.

But my slides onley go in one way.

[FORMULASPEED]

correct there is only one way for the slide to go in to the carb.

But For example if your right slide was in your left carb then it would be backwards.

Cut away always goes to the airbox
