dirtbike77 Posted March 28, 2007 Author Report Posted March 28, 2007 i jus got off the phone with the original owner and he told me when he had the bike he had a high compression head on it... and when he sold it he switched it back to the standard head? the bike is currently bored .80 over? he told me the bike was tuned for the high compression head... no to go back to stock i would think it would richen up alot? but the bike seems to be runnin lean?

bigboybanshee Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 I'd keep going up on jets till it clears up..what elevation are you at? Quote
dirtbike77 Posted March 28, 2007 Author Report Posted March 28, 2007 not exactly sure but im here in miami? but i dont understand he had the bike witha high compression head, t-5 pipes bored .80 over witha 270 main jet? so for him to put the stock head back on? it should be to rich? Quote
badassbanshee479 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 compression really does not effect jetting. If there was water in the stator cover thats not good! get some electrical cleaner and clean the stator off, did you ohm the stator?? Quote
lildeezul Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 for peace sakes, get a bigger main jet Quote
dirtbike77 Posted March 29, 2007 Author Report Posted March 29, 2007 how big of a jet do u reccomend Quote
chevdodge Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 um do you have your little cross over tube between your 2 carbs inplace? Im sure most of us have forgotten it from time to time, I know I have. When I forgot mine it had the same problems, I just happen to see it on the bench right before I started tearing stuff apart.

hotrodbanshee Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 Mine use to cut out at higher rpms and i thought it was a jetting problem, turned out my sparkplug caps were bad. Paid $6.00 for 2 new ngk caps and she ran perfect , no more popping and backfiring at mid to high rpm. You will have to test them with a ohm meter. :beer: Quote
dirtbike77 Posted March 29, 2007 Author Report Posted March 29, 2007 well i took the coil of my runnin bansheee... so i know it was a goood coil? i do have the tube in between the carbs... wat other things should i try switching Quote
bansheesmoke Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 well i took the coil of my runnin bansheee... so i know it was a goood coil?i do have the tube in between the carbs... wat other things should i try switching If one spark plug is a normal brown color and one is white. Could be the crossover tube gone or an airleak on one side. And if water came out of the flywheel cover my guess is that it was there some time and your stator could be rusted or bad. maybe test the stator with a ohmmeter? Quote

badassbanshee479 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 which plug is white?? if it is the stator side you probably have a bad crank seal and the bike is going lean which would cause it to break up!! have you leak tested the engine?? http://www.bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?...c=49835&hl= here is a link to a how too! good info!

CadillacBanshee Posted April 1, 2007 Report Posted April 1, 2007 Alright, i got it. I took my carbs apart and checked the flywheel, stator, boots, and ignition. I started my bike and then i took it for a test run and then it hit me, if the spark is there then the gas isn't. I rode it without the seat and there it was. Air bubbles in my gas line. There was a restricted gas flow through my inline filter. The stupid filter was dirty. I emptied out the gas and the pingle was also full of sludge. Then i changed the spark plugs and its back to normal. david Quote
dirtbike77 Posted April 5, 2007 Author Report Posted April 5, 2007 well i finally got it.. after pulling the flywheel cover off to check the stator andpick up coil i found some water inside of it... so i decded it to run the bike with the cover off to check if that was the problem... kinda dangerous but i did it... and lord behold it ran like a raped ape... i appreciate everything u guys suggested Quote
