Engine full of fuel and seized up

<< < (36/50) > >>

philward:
I know that the cost of the strip and find you have done is going up and up, but I always put the full cam chain train wheel/blade/etc as after almost 50 years, the material will be degraded - advice on here (which I have always taken) is use genuine Honda as after market stuff is of variable quality - plus upgraded DID chain from Julie. As for the primary chain, I always fit one - check the tensionar wheel for damage (once again 50 year old, blah, blah, blah!)
Bloody expensive these rebuilds

Trigger:
primary  chains can be had at a good price, just not in this country. If you know anyone that does business trips to japan or is off on holiday to there but, can be pricy if you have them posted here >>> https://www.yamiya750.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=246_21_250_63

royhall:
The good thing about the 750 engine is that nearly all the parts are readily available, but sometimes at a premium price.

PJM47:
so most bits on order now (ouch).

Without wanting to start too much of a debate what's the best / recommended sealant for the bottom end? I've seen other posts but not really a conclusion.

Honda Bond, 3 Bond , Yam Bond etc for crank case halves only. The lightest, lightest smear, so light, you can almost see through it.
