misses on one cyclinder

[jeffro189]

i have a 98 banshee with +4 timing, p/c pipes, race logic port, .030 milled head, 34 mm carbs, and more stuff i cant think of. the problem is about 3 weeks ago i was riding it and it was running fine. the i took a huge jump and cased it and bent foot pegs and handle bars. i let it sit for the 3 week and finally got the parts to fix it. when i went to ride it was missing on the right cyclinder only on the bottom end. one i hit the power band it ran fine. i changed the plugs, but didnt really try any thing else. i think it might be a carb problem. any suggestons. also what would a bad reed valve act like. any info my be helpful. it was also just recenty rebuild top end, a new accel coil, and new ricky stator

Do you still have a crossover on those intake boots? Maybe it got knocked loose. I'm thinking it's something with your intake. You could try swapping carbs and see if the problem follows the carb. If not, then maybe check those reeds. You could also try swapping them.

I would check the carb, maybe something was in there and you knocked it loose. or something got in...

cant hurt to take it apart and give it a good cleaning.

I agree , check the carbs first, is there still a choke tube with your carb setup

[jeffro189]

good info same as what i was thinking. no choke tube on these carbs, and my intake cross over tube it ok. i will let you guys how it goes later

regarding the carb - pull it and clean it.

 

also make sure the fuel feed line isn't pinched going to that one, and check the float height.

i finnaly had time to inspect my carbs. i found a piece of dirt lodged in the pilot jet, so i thoroughly cleaned both carbs, installed a fuel filter and rejetted. the shee screamed after that, until i rolled it and broke some shit. can read about it in rides of shame.
