powerman350 Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 i just did a rebuild on my wifes shee. i took it to glamis and the right cylindes chokes out when id go up a dune. this has happened to my banshee as well but i synced the carbs and it ran fine after that. ive tried that on this one and it doesnt make a difference. the thing ran great before i rebuilt it, typical i guess. it has the tors removed, stock head, wiseco pistons, just rebuilt carbs, t5s with toomey jetting, k&n clamp ons, new boysen reeds, new carb boots, basically everything is new except i didnt do the bottom end, (seals and crank). the weird thing is is that mine did the same but was a easy fix and my buddies is doing it too after a rebuild. in nuetral you can rev it up and hear the cylinder crap out and it kinda back fires. any help would be great, im sick of this problem!!! thanks oh, and if you can send me to a forum where this has been covered id appreciate it. ive looked around and got a little advice, any more would be great.

powerman350 Posted March 28, 2007 Author Report Posted March 28, 2007 maybe the float? you know what, one of the floats was not shuttin off the fuel and i tapped it with a screwdriver and it stopped leakin fuel all over. but it still has the problem. maybe i need to adjust them? i thought i had them good when i rebuilt the carbs.... does anyone know what the deal is if you swap the float bowls on accident?

Are the over flow tubes for the carbs facing the rear? Quote

Are the over flow tubes for the carbs facing the rear? the needle looks like its workin smooth, i took the bowl off and eyeballed it too make sure it was workin, and it is. and all the tubes are in the stock locations Quote

Should be 21 mm from the bottom of the float to the bowl mating surface with the carb turned upside down. gasket off of course. If its not that then its got to be a clog. If you leave the petcock on it will sometimes make your carbs overflow as well. Quote

And on hills youll dump it off the the side and itll crap out. Check your jetting to right after you check that with the 1-6 chop. Quote
