CB 500 K1 running issue
deltarider:
Have the fuellines as close to original as possible and use that clamp! Realise there's not that much column to speak of and flow is impeded easily. Therefor: no extra filters!
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
As long as the tank filter is intact everyone says that's enough.
On my 400 there was loads of space to fit a loop round the tool tray. My 500 has no space so I will have to remove the tap & check it is good - the one on my 400 was full of holes!
deltarider:
My petcock - the later model without the bowl and the nylon filter protruding into the tank - is still the original. I've bought a spare seal though that goes between the tank mount and the petcock in case I might need it. Oh, you will not find it if you consult the fiches, but I got the part number by chance as it also used on some Honda outboards and CMSNL has it separate for € 4,-: https://www.cmsnl.com/products/o-ring118x355_16997467000/.
Erny:
Delta, this O ring is to seal what?
deltarider:
Sorry for explaining it poorly, it's the big one here: https://www.cmsnl.com/honda-cb500k2-general-export_model50441/strainer-set_16952341671/
By buying the seal separately, I didn't have to buy that complete strainer set. Last time I had mine off, the seal looked aged. That's why I ordered a spare one.
