[johnny1000r]

well i just got my banshee back together and it wont run right. It starts like a muel and the left cylender keeps backfireing it it wont idle i switched the plug boots and same thing. new plugs rebuilt carbs i was wondering what would make it do that does it have a blown piston or what thanks any help would be great im about ready to sell it for parts.

Ha whats with all these banshees doing this latley mines doing that too and I tore my motor and and the top end is fine and I cleaned the carbs and everything. next is a rebuild and a new coil. No one seems to know whats going on with this left cylinder shutting off and shit lol.

Check that your reed pedals are sealing correctly. that was my problem.

i was just thinking if its not electrical because it works the same with plug wires switched, it must be carb or piston rings or a seal. Can i switch the carbs,reeds and boots put choke side on the right and if it still not running on the left it should be the motor and if the problem goes to right it should be carbs. Will this work any thoughts????

you cannot switch the carbs. Main reason being the choke tube crossover. I dont know what it is, the only other thing if it isn't the motor would be electrical

Sounds like you didn't sync your carbs when you put it all back together.

I am also having this problem I am going to try and sync the carbs, then adjust the airscrews and see what it does, hopefully its a simple fix like that....
