CB350/400 / Air box between inlet manifold & air filter housing not fitting correctly ?
« on: August 27, 2020, 05:24:30 PM »
What's the best way to fit the air box as it's clearly a tight squeeze & difficult to engage all four inlets.
I have a small cycle inner tube to fit inside to help keep the box from collapsing but it turning into a bit of a nightmare job.
I've already removed the battery & rear mudguard to get the battery frame & air cleaner to improve finger access !
Update I've fitted the box but the middle two rubbers are only a third of the way on whilst cylinder 1 & 4 are fully fitted - this will have to do for now so I can get her running. I guess the air box has just deformed with age so might need replacement when I do the full rebuild.
