Hi Steve,
Thanks for the info. I have passed it on to him. Seems strange as he is a member of other Honda forums.

Thanks Julie. He was moaning about a couple of marks on the top of one of his pistons, so I let him have a look at the state of your pistons when you did the engine overhaul. They were really something else. I don't think there is anyone that could believe that it ran as good as it did!!!!
Cheers Bill.

Hi, my brother, who has a CB 400 has been trying to register on the Honda- sohc forum, but his attempt came back as error and his details as spam. Is there a problem registering today??

Hi Julie,
Have you any idea what the correct thread size is?
I can't find any definitive answers on the internet.
I get 16mm, 18mm and 20mm as a fit for the CB400.
Thanks Bill.

That's the problem. If you look on the internet it gives various sizes, 16mm 18mm and 20 mm. Short of buying them all, how can I find the correct one for my brothers 1977 CB400,
Does anyone have the correct answer? Thanks Bill.

Hi,
I'm trying to find the correct size of thread for a 77 CB400 rotor puller. Apparently the 16mm for the CB550 doesn't fit. Thanks Bill W.

Hi Julie,
My brother is stripping his CB400 engine. Would Graham's "special tool" fit his rotor or is it a different size?
Cheers
Bill.

Hi Trigger and Julie,
Nice to see you both this morning.
We had a good swapping session and the rotor is off.
Still another 2 to do, but not for a while yet.
Thanks once again.
Bill.

Thanks Julie. It was either buy the correct tool or belt it off with a hammer.
Given that it probably hasn't been off the tapered shaft since it was built, that's 40 years ago!!!
See you both tomorrow.
Bill.

Hi All,
Does anyone have a preferred method of removing the rotor part of the alternator?
Thanks Bill

Hi,
The two studs were broken when I got the engine. I have managed to get the other head nuts off with a struggle, but after taking the barrels off I am left with the two broken studs. Both are about 2 inches long.
Tried the pipe wrench 'T' handle but they only seemed to wash to twist. I wasn't sure how much twist they could take so didn't push it too far.
I was going to thread the remaining bit of stud and use a couple of nuts on them, but I think the bend and twist them off seems the easier option.
Would the best option be to replace all the studs with new ones?
Thanks
Bill W.

Hi,
I have 2 broken studs in a 550 block.
So far they have resisted the efforts of heat and brute force in an effort to remove them.
I realise no one has a fool proof method to remove them, but rather than cut them flush and drill them out,
I will try any way to get them out.
Thanks
Bill W.

No, Just curious, there seems a lot for the money. I have decided to steer clear. A lot doesn't seem to add up.
