I meant to post a few times over the weekend, but just never had the chance. I sold the CB360 on Friday, so that’s no longer a project. As with all projects on this site, the content will stay. I’ll try to get a few older pictures of the CB360 project posted so that anyonce can look.
Well, here’s what’s going on with the CL2o0…
- Both carbs are having problems. I cleaned out the left carb and fuel is still not making it past the bowl. I’m hoping this isn’t a problem with engine compression (suction in this case). I did pull the plug and verify that there is strong spark. I may try to pick up some compression guage just to verify.
- I figured out that the fuel leak is from the right carb…the one that I THOUGHT was working. Well, it gets fuel into the engine just fine but the float valve is obviously sticking because fuel is pouring out of the overflow host as fast as it comes in from the tank.
Well, as much as I want to learn to do this for myself, I really want the bike on the road in July so I’m going to take the carbs to experts this week and get them professionally overhauled.
While they’re in the shop I’m going to blast out the tank too, because with the amount of junk coming out of the tank, the newly rebuilt carbs will be clogged up in no time.
So, I don’t anticipate many project updates on this for the next week. I’ll try to post some other good into though, so please stay tuned.
