Malfnet1 Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 Ok a friend of mine's quad is being a real bit*h. When we go to the dunes it take forever to get it to start then when we do get it started it runs great, let it sit for a bit and try and start it and nothing takes for ever to get it to go. Did the simple things like change plugs, check reeds, check carbs, at a total loss. You guys have any ideas, I know that she has a cool head, pipes (not sure what type look like toomeys but they aren't) Stock silencers. I am not sure what the jetting is or if it has been bored. But I know i hate tryign to start it. Quote
jmd0346 Posted September 6, 2007 Report Posted September 6, 2007 Mine did that when my stator started going out. Something to check. Quote

But I know i hate tryign to start it. sounds lean on the bottom. Try turning in the air screws to 1/2 turn out from seated. If that does not do it, pull the carb bowls and report back with the pilot jet size. Lean pilot circuits cause poor starting problems. You should only need a blip of throttle with no choke or no throttle with choke to start it. Brandon Quote
FasterThanU90 Posted September 7, 2007 Report Posted September 7, 2007 might need to reface the valve seats :kiss: Quote
Malfnet1 Posted September 10, 2007 Author Report Posted September 10, 2007 Thanks guys for the replys, I am going to try and pick her quad up this week and start to look into it more. I will check those things and report back, also how does one check a stator? Quote
fastbanshee8 Posted September 10, 2007 Report Posted September 10, 2007 If you are going to own a Banshee, one of the first things that you should buy is a Clymer's manual. It tells you how to fix a lot of things, step by step, and with pics. It's a great investment. Quote

I do own a Clymer's manual but I was hoping that someone else may have had a similar problem and could lend asistance. I take it there are steps on how to test the stator in there Quote
