skyline_898 Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 i have been told that my banshee will run better if i take off the snorkel thing. when i do, and i jam the gas it bogs down really low, like its rich. but when i have the snorkel on it runs fine? i would think that it would be leaner w/o the snorkel. i was just wondering if it was a problem :baseball_wassat: Quote
LiftdT4R Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 You would think it would run lean. Check the filter, it might be really really dirty? Quote

You will seriously fry your motor w/out it. I would hope that who ever told you that just forgot to tell you to plug the holes back up. I dont run one but thats because my new intakes dont allow me to. Quote
Big Blue Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 He is talking about the snorkel on the air box lid. If you remove that you are letting more air in which would make your bike lean out. Quote

Ooops :baseball_wacko: Quote
platinumjason Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 Chances are if you were jetted good with the snorkel on and you took it off that will let alot more air through and its probably getting way lean from not enough fuel. Quote
skyline_898 Posted September 10, 2006 Author Report Posted September 10, 2006 yea thats what i thought but it bogs down like its rick, or running out of gas (but there is gas in there) thats what i thought too Quote
Big Blue Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 Lean bog, if it were rich it would sputter or something close. Quote
