Handyman Posted July 16, 2005 Report Posted July 16, 2005 Ok people I have a problem with me shee that is bugging me. Whe the shee is cold the left side fires and is strong but after it warms up the left spark is intermitant. I have no clue as to what it could be. I've read a few threads about this and now I can't find those threads. I remember something about a CDI box or a coil but I can't remember what does what. If you guys can help me I'd greatly appreciate it. I just got ths thing out of the shop after being there for 3 weeks and they didn't get far enough to fix it. I pulled the bike out after they did a lot work on it that I didn't ask them to do. So any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote
Rare Scottish Tree Badger Posted July 16, 2005 Report Posted July 16, 2005 Try swapping over the HT leads to see if the problem swaps cylinders. ... If it does, then there's a problem with the HT lead or plug cap. If the problem still stays on the same cylinder, then it could be a fouled or faulty spark plug. Rare. Quote

Rare. 393199[/snapback] I thought the same thing with it being a bad plug but when I put new plugs in it did the same thing. It only does it when in gear. What is an "HT lead"? Sorry for not understanding some of the terminology I'm still learning about the Banshee Quote
Rare Scottish Tree Badger Posted July 16, 2005 Report Posted July 16, 2005 What is an "HT lead"? 393201[/snapback] HT = High Tension, the proper name for the leads that come out of the coil and have the spark plug boots fitted on the ends of them. A weak plug cap (they have built-in resistance) or lead is more likely to show up problems when under load, than when not under load. Rare. Quote
