bighefbanshee Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 Hi all, I have a 2001 banshee with fattys, pcII, noss head 21cc domes, v-force 3 reeds, pro design air box adapter w' foam filter, lid on, 280 mains, 25 pilot, stock needle stock position. Went riding this weekend in a lot of mud and water but the bike ran great except for a slight throttle sticking towards the end of the trip. About halfway through the trip I pulled the plugs to give them a look over (I have to tinker, my buddies hate it) clutch side plug looked perfect, nice and brown but the stator side plug looked like it had grown black fuzz. This stuff was hard as a rock; I had to scrape to get it to come off. So I replaced both plugs and continued to ride bike, still running great. Got home pulled the plugs and the same thing stator side plug starting to grow black fuzz. What is the deal? Is it water getting into the cylinder? My buddy has a Blaster that does the same thing when he rides it in the wet. Water getting in through the choke pull knob? Any body else have any experience with this? Thanks Quote
ssanddemon Posted January 2, 2006 Report Posted January 2, 2006 A damp & dirty air filter is the most likely cause of the problem. As airflow gets restricted, it will make the motor run rich. Quote
