endofitall9 Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 I just got my banshee all back together, I've had it running for 2 days for the first 2 days it ran real strong. after I got got done riding on the second day I washed it off, I started it up let it run then took it down the road and back then put it up. I went the next day to ride and it started up fine but then just started running like crap. The engine sounds strong and the top end isnt even a week old. when its just sittin it runs fine. but then after you put a load on it it just acts like it dont want to run. the bands arent as powerful and your lucky to wind out 4th gear even luckier to see 5th or 6th. Since then I've cleaned the carbs put new gas in it and checked my plugs. The guy at my local shop say that I need to put bigger jets in it because it running lean. Ive been mixing my oil 32:1 and I have bigger jets on the way 260's to be exact. I just dont understand it has anyone else had these problems. thanks for the help Quote
93blueoval Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 that happened to me, after riding it for a day it got warm and blew out the o rings in the cool head. i dont know if oyu have a cool head or not, but if so you may want to check that Quote
Wallrat Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Could be an airleak. What do your plugs look like? Similar thing happened to a friend of mine, but he melted a hole in the top of his piston. Quote
. Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 is your parking brake and tors still connected? Quote
endofitall9 Posted March 8, 2005 Author Report Posted March 8, 2005 It's all stock except for the the exhaust, I have completely removed the TORS. The spark plugs, look fine, I had it in the shop, after my rebuild because I couldnt get any spark. While it was in there they put a new coil on it and tested the stator andsuch and it ran fine for 2 days after i got it back from the shop. Until I washed it then it ran like crap. I sprayed it off again yesterday and just put it up. Now there is no Fire or Spark and it won't even run. I called the shop and the were saying that the people before me just butchered the wiring on it and that they had to replace alot of stuff just piecing it together. So that is basically the only leads I have. The top end has been rode on 3 times, So I know that couldn't be the reason I was loosing all my power . The only 2 factors I really have is my wiring harness and the jets in my carbs. My jets will be here tomorrow, and Tomorrow I'm going to rip apart my harness and replace every wire in it. I dont really want to re-use the Connectors but if I have to that will be ok. Has anyone ever done this to their harness and Does anyone know if you can just buy new Connectors or if you absolutley have to use your old ones. Thanks for the info guys Quote
