hotpony Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 hey hows it going, i had written another post a couple days ago on banshee smoking out of right side exaust, last night i fired it up and noticed that alot of fuel is entering the cylinder, i have a set of aftermarket pipes on the bike and the pipes join right over the carburaters and theres gas dripping out of that and dripping beside my carb. some how there is a way way way to much fuel entering the cylinders, last night i cleand the carbs pretty good, poped it back on and it still did the same thing. anybody know what part of the carb stops the flow of fuel? it seems somehow fuel is passing right through the carb and nothing is stoping it. thanks Quote
Bansh-eman Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 when you cleaned your carbs did you remove the floats and the needle under them? that controls the fule coming into your carb... also what jetting are you running? when you say gas is dripping... is it raw gas or is it more oil residue?

hotpony Posted March 16, 2007 Author Report Posted March 16, 2007 hey, thanks for the response. yes i cleaned that needle under the floats, i also sprayed it with carb cleaner pretty well, ya the gas im sure is mixed with the oil, but when it leakes out its real black, also i noticed that even the air intake side boot had enough oil in it laying on and around the boot and there was oil laying all inside the carb. i am not to sure what size jet is in there, its been along time seince i did that. (it might be something like a 260 or 270 but im not even sure. Quote

Could you post a picture of your pipes and carbs (and the oil/fuel residue)? :thumbsup: Quote
hotpony Posted March 16, 2007 Author Report Posted March 16, 2007 yes i can take a few pics but i will have to wait a couple hours, she went to town and she has the camera. anything else i should check, also you can hear that side fire up for about 1.5 seconds then it stops fireing for about 4 seconds and then it will kick in and fire for a second, and it keeps doing that, also after the bike hits 40 mph or so everything clears right up and the bike works perfect, its only the 1st 3 gears that the problem is.

okbeast Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 I have a hard time believing it'll run with that much fuel going through it... And your problem of it cutting out until you get into the higher RPM's sounds like a problem caused by the slides being in backwards, or the choke tube not being in place. Quote
hotpony Posted March 17, 2007 Author Report Posted March 17, 2007 hey, i wanna say thanks to all that helped me fix this problem, i did some stuff today and i just got it working pretty darn good, i think that the slides were in backwards, there in right now, i put 2 new plugs in, i added a height on the carb needle and its running great now. (fhewww im glad it wasen't the crank seal. one more question though, what is the screw that the carb slide passes when you drop the slide into the carb? i cant seem to find out what that is for, it also has a nut on the screw that you can tighten. thanka agian.
