Geoff Posted May 8, 2006 Report Posted May 8, 2006 (edited) Ok I did a search and couldn't find the answer I was looking for. I just bought a shee and it runs pretty darn good. The only thing is is that the other day it fouled a plug and then when I went to the dunes yesterday it fouled a plug again right off the bat(different cylinders). I'm at sea level, k&n pods, FMF fatties, +4 timing, boyeson reeds/stock cages, supposebly a "race port", I have carbs apart right now and the jetting is 310/30, don't know how many turns out and the needle has 5 positions(whats stock?) and it's in the 3rd. I put new plugs in after it fouled and went and rode, the plugs are dry and black/dark brown on the end but all the threads are wet. It runs good but I'm wondering if the pilot is too big and thats the problem. There is no hesitation when I'm tearing along but it does seem to lug a bit if it's not up in the R's there is some hesitation. Thanks Geoff Edited May 8, 2006 by Geoff Quote

Geoff Posted May 8, 2006 Author Report Posted May 8, 2006 Alright, thanks guys for confirming that. I've messed around with my bro-in-laws Rapturd but I'm learning on the fly about 2-strokes. Wanted to make sure before I got all crossed up. Is there anyway to tell if the needles are stock or not? They have some wierd shape below the slots and it say 5N7. Never had a 2-stroke carb apart until today. Thanks again Geoff Quote
Nighty Posted May 8, 2006 Report Posted May 8, 2006 5N7 is the stock banshee needle. the stock setting is 3th position (middle) Quote
ellison445 Posted May 8, 2006 Report Posted May 8, 2006 THE 3TH OR THE 3RD 5N7 is the stock banshee needle.the stock setting is 3th position (middle) 513220[/snapback] Quote
Geoff Posted May 8, 2006 Author Report Posted May 8, 2006 Cool, thanks for the info. Is the stock needle ok to leave in or are the aftermarket ones better. Sorry for all the questions but this is all new like I already said. Thanks Quote
ellison445 Posted May 8, 2006 Report Posted May 8, 2006 stocks are good, the Dynojet needles AKA Blaster needles have a flat spot in the RPMs.. I would dtay with the stockers Quote
Geoff Posted May 8, 2006 Author Report Posted May 8, 2006 Cool thanks for the info again. Sounds good. Thanks Geoff Quote
