johnp Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 (edited) This is my first post and I have to say, what a great website for Banshee information. I already troubleshooted the banshee extensively with the information I learned from this board. Problem: My banshee wasn't getting any spark. Solutions: 1. I purchased a new coil from the Yamaha dealer and I still didn't get any spark. 2. I disconnected the three prong plug on the TORR black box AND NOW IT GETS SPARKS AND RUNS, but runs like the choke is pulled out. It is running very rich. Questions: 1. Is the banshee running terrible because the TORRS is disconnected? 2. Should I go purchase another TORRS black box at the Yamaha dealer? 3. Do I electrical tape the TORR plug up and go ride it? Will is run fine with only the plug disconnected? 4. THere is a switch on the throttle and carb tops, what do I do with those electical components? Thanks for your help guys.

CenCalBanshee Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 unplug the switches on the carbs and throttle they are all part of the tors. that will disconect the whole tors system, its best to get the tors removal kit and just get rid of the whole system it seems its does more harm than good.

535banshee Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 make sure you dont have a slide sticking. the box might have been doing its job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnp Posted April 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 Cool! One of the spark plug caps was not seated fully on the plug...and I disconnected the TORR at the carbs and throttle from the wiring harness. RUNS CRISP NOW! Geez, now the damn thing doesn't go. I let the clutch out and nothing! AHHHH another problem. CHIT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handyman Posted April 8, 2007 Report Share Posted April 8, 2007 I had the same problem a hile ago.... Adjust your air screws and the fat screws on top of your tors housing on the carbs...Your idle and air mixture is off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
