need major help

[differentstrokes]

I thought it sounded lean from the beginning, glad you figured it out. On my 2 into 1 I run a 48 pilot, 185 main, DEK needle third clip and 1 turn out on the air screw. Pulled it out of the garage today, shook it really good to mix the gas up and pulled the choke, 1 kick and boom it started. That's what I'm talking about, I'm proud to own a Banshee too bro. :beer:

I didn't say nothing about holding the throttle open I just said I would twist the throttle a couple time with out even trying to start it then I owuld kick it without giving it gas and it would start as if it had no gas in the carb... :thumbsup:

Twisting the throttle like others have said, does absolutely nothing w/o kicking it over...If you snap the throttle open when kicking, then your allowing the carb to pull off the needle circuit which is why it is starting....not starting when warm is a sign of a rich pilot. Your shee requires more fuel when cold, that is why it starts up fine when cold, but once it warms up, its too rich....try a size smaller on the pilot.... readjust the air screw.
