CB350/400 / electrical problem
« on: November 18, 2010, 11:35:53 PM »
started wrenching on a cb350f thats been sitting for a bunch of years. I dont have a battery in it but I hooked my booster box up to it just to check compression and spark on it. I got no lights, horn, starter, instrument panel, nothing. If I arc the solenoid with a screwdriver the motor spins. the fuse looked fine but I put a brand new one in anyway I got continuity out of both sides of the fuse and when I took a test light to it both sides made it glow. went through the headlight bucket and everythings connected. Electrical is definatley a weak point for me and any advise would be greatly appreciated!

swapped condensors, no change. checked for spark and its got a nice blue healthy one to all 4,  its funny its about 40 degrees out and the bike was dead cold but fired up at the first hit of the button, idles nice and smooth on only 2 cylinders. hit all 4 pipes with temp gun 1&4 are in the low 200s 2&3 400s pretty quick. pull the plug leads for 1&4 and theres no change in the idle. compression, spark, that only leaves fuel right? ??? >:(

Other Bikes / 71 cl350 twin valve adjustment problems
« on: January 09, 2010, 12:47:04 AM »
had a friend bring me his cl350 to work on, the number 2 exhaust rocker arm shaft was stuck and wouldnt turn to adjust the rocker, I pulled the top end apart replaced the shaft put it all back together, now none of the rockers will adjust tight enough to be within spec for the valve clearances. I can get them relatively close but when i tighten the lock nut it loosens up (even though i got a good lock on the rocker arm shaft with a flathead screwdriver and make shure the shaft dosnt rotate.) it also feels like the rocker arms go from being free and moving up and down well to really tight when I lock down the lock nut. I looked at the rocker arm feet that ride on the cam lobes and they dont seem chewed up or worn down, niether does the cam itself. anybody run into this? warped head? my mistake? something else? Ive rebuilt a couple of these engines before and have a fairly decent working knowledge of putting them together but i cant seem to diagnose this
