Frist set of pistons lasted 9 years, this set 2.5

I developed a air leak from a loose intake boot bolt, went lean, and took out the LH piston top ring

Nope, just reassemble as a 355 cc instead of a 352

So far nobody has beat me up the hill, that other oil burner of "jockey" Chad's has potential I hear, BUT Duvall's car might be running 8's before Chad's wheeler ever sees the sand again

BIG THANKS to Sad for helping with the teardown

You and GoFast should line up - I think it'd be a lot of fun for you both!

I think it might be more fun for him, unless I get too take the spinny exhaust thing off his first ...

Power adder > N/A

He aborted the turbo setup. They aren't worth it on a single cylinder. He is still running a power adder though

We need to plan another UFBA dune trip!

Either way Power adder > N/A

Dune trip ... St. Anthony October 15th or October 22nd (prob 15th pending Banshee running)

Made progress

BUT got held up on parts

SO ... I had to ride a borrowed Raptor 660 for the dunes

It was slow

Not even CLOSE to the performance of Sad's Rapppy 700, I think it must be pretty worn out, at least I got to ride the dunes I suppose

Awsome man!! I'm glad it's back together.

fstphx · « **Reply #18 on:** October 23, 2011, 11:36:51 pm »

Been thinking about finding another Banshee myself. I've had a few over the years, but havent had any offroad toys this summer. I'll be looking for something cheap with a blown motor to put together by spring I think. I'll always love the 2-stroke

Sounds like your valves are out of adjustment, you should get those checked out.

You are correct

Well not really, BUT although up and running earlier that day it failed it's pressure check

... So a few parts and 2 heli-coils later, it held 6.4 PSI for over and hour

The main leak:

Pressure held:

So now it's back together AGAIN ! ... runs FAST !!! and hopefully won't be back apart soon

OOh interesting, those 2 strokes are such a mystery to me, im tempted to get a banshee just to toy with it. I understand how they work but i have no idea how to properly tune them / mod them LOL.

They are VERY easy to work on ! And sorta fun unless you are doing things for the 3rd time like I was
