bansheesmoke Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 I have a 97 banshee brand new rs stator and stock ignition coil. If I let it sit for a few days then go to star it. It starts right up first or second kick. Then if I shut it right down or warm it up it wont start again unless I push or pull start it. I thought maybe a clogged pilot but I cleaned the carbs real good and pilots are clear. Anyone have any idea at all? Anything would help. Quote

bansheesmoke Posted May 29, 2008 Author Report Posted May 29, 2008 Maybe the gap on the pickup for the fly wheel is offf just a hair...Just guessing for you..lol Ya I checked that. The gap is good. It runs so good but just wont kick start. Quote
pabansheematt Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 Ya I checked that. The gap is good. It runs so good but just wont kick start. Whats your cylinder PSI. Banshees with worn out rings dont like to kick start. (just an idea) but it you tow them they start right up. Quote
bansheesmoke Posted May 30, 2008 Author Report Posted May 30, 2008 Whats your cylinder PSI. Banshees with worn out rings dont like to kick start. (just an idea) but it you tow them they start right up. about 110 in both and my elevation is about 1400 above sea level. Even with this same compression it used to start first kick everytime. Quote
