Oil pressure issue / motor rebuild
MrDavo:
Its off and apart, what do you think of this on a scale of 0 to banjaxed?
Pretty damned filthy, I don't know if that's my problem totally, but it can't help. I'll sort this before trying a new battery or 10/40.
I'll order new brushes tomorrow, DS has the genuine article in stock.
Trigger:
That needs a good clean. Use WD40 and scrape all the grooves on the copper with a tooth pick.
Bryanj:
Orrible with a capital O, best cleaner is Armaclean but not that easy to get

That's probably the PO turning it over with those tight main bearings as it ground lumps off them ;) does look pretty mucky.
Looking at oil temp range in Honda manual, and it says 20/50 ok down to zero degrees. 10w just extends usable operating range lower to -15c so I can't see it would affect it. It may be at ambient temp now that the two are all but identical in practice.
I know Bitsa always advocated 20/50 for these and I've always used it without any problems partly because of the top temp range is useful if it's running hot. Queing in and out of road race bike meetings always got mine stinking hot.

If you look in the Honda manuals in My Drop-box Dave there are refurb detail in there. It may be better in the CB350 twins manual than the 750 one .. not sure & I can't check for you at the 'mo. All of the Mutsuba starters have armatures/commutators/brush arrangement which are basically the same, it's the gearing & wattage that differs.
