first I had to change jets on it. Then I fired it up, and only 1 cyclinder runs. The other side there was gas overflow happening. So after a week of not running. it won't start!!! Now got another problem. any tips would help.


Thanks!!!

how old is it.......check your plugs

BVRider1

OK, the plugs are switched. but still the banshee doesn't want to start. Thinking about just dump'n all the fuel out of the carbs. then try again. Is there anything else that you recommend?

RedRebel

Drain the carb bowl, and take it apart and clean it out..their may be dirt and such clogging one of the jets

Have you tried to see if their is alot of spark?

yzfR666

make sure your getting spark to your plug.. and from what it sounds like one of your floats are stuck open thats why your gettin overflow........ take off the bowl and check your float to make sure its not varnished or gummed up.......clean it if it is and check your main jet...pilot jet to make sure their not blocked..... make sure to check for SPARK

ENASNI TILLER

yeah just pull the carbs and clean them

RedRebel

You try anything yet? keep us updated

BVRider1

Alright. I cleaned the bowls out and replaced the plugs. I tried to fire it up again at no success. I'm checking for spark, but nothing from both sparkplugs. So...what's next guys?


Thanks a lot for all the help guys

RedRebel

Check all your wires, and check out the CDI(black box). You might wanna switch it out. Have you messed with teh TORS system? That could be a possiblity. Be sure the gap is set on the plugs correctly

If any of that doesnt work, let me know

RedRebel

Oh, also, have you tried bumpstarting it? Did that work?

BVRider1

I just guessed on the gap size, would you know what size gap I should really have????

Explain TORS?

CDI - would I need to check it even though it did run last week?

RedRebel

Really, the gap depends on the spark plug.

TORs, is the throttle shutoff incase the throttle sticks and plugs into the top of the carbs.

Try bumpstarting it and see if it works...get it in 2nd, pull in the clutch, and get it rolling and let out the clutch slowly.

Oooohhh... is that how it works? And all this time, I've had my dick stuck in the exhaust!!!

RedRebel

Heres some info abotu TORS

Andrew andrew....did you get it stuck trying to masterbate in it or something, so you tried starting it and you thought the exhaust pressure would force it out


Come on andrew,...im trying to explain it for a noob

BVRider1

RedRebel

Try that and let me know playa

Banshee

You probably got a stuck slide in your carb

BVRider1

Damn quad finally fired up!!!! ( I played with teh plugs a bit) but still getting over flow outa the left carb.... still running very rich....gonna turn down the fuel mixture


I'm running 240 size jets....it has aftermarket exausts but I think stock is like 200 or 220????


You guys have rocked on the pointers...!!!!!

Much thanks...I'll keep you guys posted.

a guy at work said with aftermarket pipes on his banshee he had to jump up to a 280 jet but everyone is different...
