kawiking Posted February 7, 2006 Report Posted February 7, 2006 i finally got my shee together annd it has troubles starting and running. when it starts it will run for a sec. and die. i have to pull the plugs and wipe them off and then it will start just for a sec. i'm getting way to much gas!! could it be from my float?? when i started it yest. it ran for about a min but was shooting gas out of the pipes and plugs. i'm sure its carb prob but if you can think of anything to help it would be great. thanks!!

banshee tuner Posted February 7, 2006 Report Posted February 7, 2006 It depends on what mods you have done, but your reeds could be the problem or pilot jets to large. Let us know your mods and jetting along with elevation Quote

Wallrat Posted February 8, 2006 Report Posted February 8, 2006 Ok and what size jets are you running? Any fuel coming out the overflow tubes from the carbs (puddle of gas on the ground)? Elevation? Temperature outside? Quote
kawiking Posted February 8, 2006 Author Report Posted February 8, 2006 not sure what the jetting is,i bought the bike from somebody about 30 miles away. it was a rebuild(craked frame), they said it ran before they took the bike apart. its been apart for 3 months? i had gas coming from the tubes, thats why i thought the floats were stuck, i tapped on the carbs and finally got it started . it ran for a couple of min, but was spitting gas from pipes and the spark plugs.
