i have a 98 banshee that i got in a trade and it ran great for a week. it has fmf pipes and silencers it is bored over not sure how much maybe 20 over and no airbox only a k&n filter. then it started to sputter and it runs but has no power. i took off the head and the pistons and rings appear to be fine and the carbs look fine too. the only thing i noticed was the spark plugs were very dark and had some oil on them after i replaced them even when i only ran it for a few mins. any help greatly appriciated. trying to avoid a huge bill from local shop.
