Olds Eddie Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 After discovering this Forum I am ready to sort out my Banshee. I had the water pump impeller go out and fried the top end so while waiting for the engine work I have been reading and ordering parts. I have tors removal mod cable and idle screws ect. Does anyone have a drawing and instructions for installing the idle screws they can post. I already have the drill and tap so I didn't get the complete kit, and now I can't find the post I read that explained how it's done. Any help would be appriciated greatly! :: Quote
3 Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 http://www.toomey.com/, go in the ``Tech documents`` and then go read the ``Banshee idle screw`` You wont need anything else, except something that you will put inside the carb, where the slide goes, just to stop you from drilling in the other side of the carbs. i.e. Piece of wood, socket. Good luck :thumbsup: Quote

I will probably drill and tap it on my drill press with cross vice. That way I can set the depth stop to keep from going too far. Quote
SandShots Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 while tapping make sure you back out the tapp every couple of turns to release all the loose metals. Quote
2003LimitedBanshee Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 Thanks so much for the link. I will probably drill and tap it on my drill press with cross vice. That way I can set the depth stop to keep from going too far. That's what I did, fool proof! The only thing you will likely find is that you will almost certainly have to file the boss down a bit farther than it takes to get it flush. I believe the Toomey instructions tell you to go to 20mm or something, but I ended up taking mine down an additional 2-3mm over whatever the Toomey number says. I found it necessary, and I've heard of many others who have also, to take this extra material off so that I could get the adjustability out of the idle screws. If you even have basic mechanical skills it is no sweat. Quote

Olds Eddie Posted February 2, 2007 Author Report Posted February 2, 2007 (edited) Here's a couple pix to help you out. :thumbsup: You da Man, Climb! Those pictures fill in all the blanks. Thanks again to all who responded. I might be interested in some of your take offs as my Banshee was old before I bought her 10 yrs ago, and I would like to convert it to A-arm suspension and freshen her up a bit.
