banshee223 Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 I was at the track the other day and when I went to practice, it started cutting out when on the throttle. So I checked my plugs and they were fouled, so I put new plugs in and it still down the same thing. Got home and tryed to start it and it wouldn't start. When I kicked it it started kindof sputtering or backfiring. Then every now and then when I kicked it it felt like it didn't have compression. What could be the problem, bad gas, bad filter? My mods are in my sig. Its the 2000 banshee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handyman Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 If you think that there is a loss of compression when trying to start it try doing a comp. test and see what the readings are. Might find a new top end is due. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banshee223 Posted December 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 I haven't done anything to it since the last time I rode it. So do you think it might be doing this because it needs a new top end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 If it doesn't feel like it has compression when you kick it, and it won't start...I think you answered your own question. Pick up a compression tester and check it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
