Hey guys. Hope some one could help me here. I recently put some new items on my 96 Banshee. I purchased two new stock carbs and got the Motion Pro Tors removal kit. I now am finding out after reading past posts that I have to grind more off the posts on the side of the carbs to get the idle screws to work properly.

 

My questions are:

On the motion Pro kit the idles screws they give you have locking nuts on them. On the one idle screw the nut will adjust all the way back. On the other it stops about 1/8 of an inch from the end of the screw. Does it matter which idle screw goes into the carbs as they are different?

 

Also I noticed that one side smokes a little more than the other and there seems to be a dead spot on acceleration at first when taking off in first gear. Is this due to the idle adjustment screws not working properly?

 

Any advice here is much appreciated. Thanks, D

some carbs are cast with longer idle screw bosses "tabs" than others and I guess screw lengths could vary to. I doesnt matter which screw goes on which side and long as they lift the slides enough and even. the hesitation is most likely a jetting problem.

My bike is all stock except for replacing the Stator,Pickup,Flywheel and CDI box from RM Stator.com. It did come with a adjustable timing plate which is set now at 0. Would the timing have anything to do with the hesitation? I wouldnt guess it was the Jetting as the carbs are new and set stock jetting.

that depends on where you are and what the temp is. just because your bike is setup stock and the jetting is too doesnt mean its right.
