- This is the first video in a series of videos that will feature a step by step process of rebuilding the legendary Honda CBX 1000 6 Cylinder Engine. I will take you through every step from tear down to a finished running and beautifully restored engine.
In this video, I show you how to disassemble, cleanup and Bench Check Honda CBX 1000 Oil Pump
Thank you! Seeing it done is quite a bit better than reading in a manual. Especially when the manual is wrong! Lol
good blast of compressed air when drying
Very interesting videos even if I'm not likely to be working on these particular engines the methodologies you use apply to all engines & machinery, Thanks.
Very interesting. I want to start a restoring project after having seeing your videos.
Hi just found your videos really like watching them really interesting keep up the great work
Wouldn't be better to measure it after cleaning? All that sludge can distort your gaps and making it smaller and looking like they are in spec where it does not.
Nice video series. Congrats
Hi Seb, yes you are correct. I actually did remeasure after cleaning everything up and it was all within specs. I was mainly showing the procedure for the purpose of the video. Thank you for the comment, I really appreciate the input. it helps everyone :)
Thank you for the video, very informative. I have a few comments:-
1. Strange about the broken oil intake flange, could it have been vibration, was it touching the side of the engine case.
2. It's an impeller rather than a propeller.
3. Isn't the re-use of cotter pins a no-no, especially inside an engine.
Hi Bee Cee
Yes, you are correct on the impeller, when recording, sometime there is a brain freeze lol.
The cotter pin is a factory design, so Honda must have had a reason they designed it that way. I have Never had and issue with it.
The broken pickup tube is a mystery, but given all the weird junk that was floating around inside this engine , I am not surprised 😲
You are doing an awesome job, and very informative for us by the way, I own an ´83 CB1100F that needs some love and restoring, and even this being a different model, I guess that they share some interesting parts on the rebuild process that can help me too ;)
Hi eduki ,
Well stay tuned, because I am about to start a full restoration an 83 CB1100F
I will be starting on that later this week as a matter of fact.
I am waiting for some parts for the CBXs, so in the meantime I’m going to start on the 1100F
Great How to video, I am also creating how to video about make money off the stock market and teaching about how to trade stock and your video gave me a idea, thank you :)
Apart from the side and rotor clearances, it's very important to make Shure the the side cover faces and the internal faces are not scored.
There are methods to fix it if they are, but it all comes down to economics sometimes a new one, or good second hand is a better option
Hi Llew, yes you are correct. There was no scoring at all that I could see. Thanks for mentioning that.
If the shop manual is wrong on the plunger spring order and you follow it, what happens and how would you know it was wrong?
I wonder if someone tried to turn on that bike after some years left in the elements, and had the piston hydro locked and all that gunk inside the pump. Who knows?
Wouldn't you wanna clean and lightly reoil it BEFORE you check the clearances? If there's sludge in there the sludge is taking up room that might be masking worn areas.
Hi Andy
Yes, I check before and after.
I this case, the results were the same.
The clearances were really tight with this pump.
I’d give the bolts some loctite. These would be pretty nasty if they came out and took a journey inside the engine. c”.)
