DogoNY Posted April 27, 2007 Report Posted April 27, 2007 Ok, I have had this banshee for a couple of years and I lend it out and get it back with these problems. Saw some oil leaking from the left side cylinder head, backfires a little, and I can rev it to 5000rpms or so and it has no torque. Had trouble starting it, took off the air filters sprayed either and it still took a few kicks to get going. With the lack of power I get about 10 feet before it goes no more and dies. I have no clue, checked spark, and checked compression both seems to be ok. Any help would be appreciated. Josh Quote

chugger Posted April 27, 2007 Report Posted April 27, 2007 oil leaking from the head? are you sure? where exactly? It could be your reeds or it could be electrical depends where its leaking from exhaust? or where? Quote
DogoNY Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Posted April 27, 2007 It looked like it was around the left spark plug. I figured it just wasn't tight enough, I was really more concerned with the lack of power. Thanks for replying, and I look foward to more. Josh Quote
Toomey Banshee Posted April 27, 2007 Report Posted April 27, 2007 Do you still have the TORS hooked up? If so unplug that, same goes for the parking break. Make sure the tube is connected between the two carbs as well. Quote
