My 01 banshee never wants to start, i have replaced plugs, checked ohms on stater, and made sure i have fire to plugs, the damn thing will never start, you have to pull it or push it, when it is started it runs fine,sometimes it will start frist kick, (not often at all), you can ride for hours, shut it off for more than five minutes, and it won't kick. I NEED HELP!!

 

what kind of plugs are you using?

 

NGK b8es, or b9's, and tried b7's, most always b8's

 

hmm...for one, id go to B8EG, and well, does it have good compression? are the reeds good? filter clean? etc.?

 

has 145 compression on both sides, good reeds, freshly cleaned filters, run good gas and oil

 

damn. what gas and oil mixture? and what kind of oil?

 

i always go a pint to five gallons, usually put octaine boost in, use yamalube 2-r, and have run alot of castor 927 through it, occasionally some cheaper oil, not often at all, most always yama 2-r, it's really starting to **** me off

 

well, ok, but whats the ratio? 20:1, 32:1, 48:1, 50:1?

 

one pint to five gallons is always 32:1

 

damn man, im runnin out of ideas here. is anything up with the jetting maybe? or, idle?
