kodie Posted September 2, 2007 Report Posted September 2, 2007 was riding my banshee all weekend and it was running perfect. then it started to sputter and it died on me. i restarted it and it didn't want to stay on. it stayed on and i tried to take off a little and it would act like it wasn't getting any gas and it would sputter and then it died so i got it towed back to the campsite. im thinking i fouled the plugs and if so how much gap is needed on the plugs for the banshees? ive only owned this banshee for about 5 months or so and this is first time i had to change the plugs Thanks Kodie Quote

The factory gap is fine unless you have a heavy breather in which you will need to reduce gap to around .020". Brandon Quote

blowit Posted September 3, 2007 Report Posted September 3, 2007 (edited) heavy breather? drag ported 350 with carbs or bigger. with that much A/F mixture hitting the plug, it can snuff the spark so the gap needs to be reduced on the OEM system. Basically because of a weak ass ignition system. with quality ignition upgrades, this should not be needed though. Brandon Edited September 3, 2007 by blowit Quote
