Your content is really great i am planning to buy cb750 i was hesitant becouse i knew its Lot of work to keep it in good condition your videos have given me the confidence that i can do it my self. Thanks keep it up💪
All the videos you are doing of this project are insanely helpful. I'm looking at starting a custom build on a 79 or 80 sometime this summer (want to find a DOHC engine) and I'll definitely have to refer back to all of your tutorials. Of course the DOHC engine will be different on the inside, but these are all still super helpful!
Hi Dino, don't know if anyone else mentioned this but the reason the pipe didn't dampen the needle fluctuations is due to the vacuum being created. There would be no air in the pipe, (vacuum remember?) therefore nothing to dampen the fluctuations. Great build though, cheap way to make a manometer. Looking forward to the rest of the build and future hacks.
Dino, the easiest way to stabilize the needles is to put a petcock or small shut-off valve in-line. Start the bike with the valves wide open, then slowly close them until the needles stabilize. This is actually what most carb sync tools come with when you buy them.
I used the dual glass jar method to sync my gold wing. Fill the jars 1/2 way with oil, and connect them in series with two carbs. Whichever way the oil flows shows the imbalance. Worked pretty good. and only used a couple canning jars and some vinyl tubing. I bought the 5mm vacuum adapters , maybe $25...
I use variable restrictors for controlling air flow like you would find on an aquarium. Get them at the pet store for a couple of bucks for a hand full. Then you can use them to dampen the needle movement. Adjust them down where to where the pulses are tiny. More accurate readings. Great idea using the PVC but they didn't work for you. One thing you might be able to try is to plug the brake lines with JB Weld and drill a small hole to help restrict the air flow which may have the effect you desire without adding anything. Like a #30 drill or 1/32.
Im glad that you mentioned the STOCK Airbox at the end of this video...I have found that Individual Air Filters do NOT work very well on the CB750...or at least my 74' seemed to hate the individual filters, No amount of tuning or synchronization would smooth things out with the separate filters. As soon as I re-installed the stock Airbox things smoothed right out. Performance was better, the Synch was easier to obtain and she ran much stronger with the Stock Airbox. Just thought it was funny you mentioned it sort of off the cuff at the end...Possibly not knowing just how important that stock box actually was. I think the separate filters need larger jets to be honest...I didn't have them handy so just went back to the original setup and that setup has proven to be Smooth, Powerful and Reliable over many thousands of miles. 34K and counting...Still going Strong.
Great video's and very informative. I have a 1971 Honda CB 750 that needed the head gasket replaced, so I did a top end refurbish including piston rings, hone cylinders, lap values, clutch friction plates, new sprockets and chain, front forks and swing arm removal and regrease and oil, and miscellaneous cleaning and replacing. I have an issue, cylinders 2 + 4 run twice as hot as 1 + 3, as per infrared themometer. 1300°F -700°F. A mechanic friend of mine said that's usually a timing issue but since cylinder 1 + 4 are set at the same timing mark, #1 shouldn't be cold while #4 is hot, and the same with 2+3. with your obvious knowledge what else might I look for? Carburetor jets are all clean, but haven't balanced or synced them with a manometer, only by ear. My local Honda dealer is reluctant to discuss anything older than the year 2000. This bike has only 16,000 miles on it and is totally original even the mufflers. Baffles are snarly though. I had it in storage for 31 years but started riding it again in 2018 because I retired so the head gasket had lots of time to dry out thoroughly. I've watched all of your 41 videos re 1973 Honda cb. This is coming to you from Kelowna BC Canada. Ken.
My shop manual calls for about 8 psi of vacuum on each carb. The threads on the screw, however, only allowed me to get it into the 5 psi range. At least I managed to get it above the zero it started off at. Come to think of it, I am not sure if the shop manual told me to get that PSI for idling speed or for running speed. I need to go back and check. And, I was having trouble telling whether I should focus on getting a sync at idle speed or at running speed. I went ahead and focused on idling speed, but already I'm feeling reservations about that. I suspect I should optimize the carbs for what they are designed to do, namely to move the bike, not just to make it nice while idling.
I have an idea to use four MAP sensors and a 5v regulator hooked up to a four channel oscilloscope to do this. My feeling is that all that extra air volume that synch tool adds to the normal operating volume affects the way the thing is going to run. Up to this point I've been synching carb sets without any special tool. All I do is visually sync the slides/throttle plates initially. Then turn the idle screw up to a fast idle like you did but not quite as much. Maybe to 1,500 RPM. Then one by one remove and replace each spark plug cap in turn and note how far the RPM's fall with each cap removed. I have really good success doing this it just takes longer I imagine than with using a specialized tool. One more thing, I think you can get away with adjusting the idle screws with the rpm's above a normal idle when they are air mixture screws, however if they the more common/more modern fuel mixture type the slow circuit (as opposed to the idle circuit) ports begin to become active and you won't get a good adjustment on the screws, so you should adjust them at a normal idle speed. Even though I'm working on bikes like this on a daily basis I do appreciate seeing the level of rebuild you are doing to this bike.
Hi Dino, fantastic and informative video yet again. Just a thought on this bouncy needle issue. The position of the dampers seems to be important. Here's a "what if" for you. I've no idea if it would make any difference or not, but, what if you were to have a short length of tube from the engine to your plastic damper and then instead of having the gauge directly attached to the damper, run a longer length of tube (about 2 ft.) from the damper with the end of the tube attached to the gauge. Anyhoo, keep up the good work with those videos.
Wish I had seen this before I paid for the one I have your setup seems to work better and cost way less.. sigh.. Well if these ever go I will do this for sure! Thanks!
I feel like if you went with a really small orifices into the vac chambers that combination would dampen the readings enough. Question: what is the appropriate head temperature operating range for an air cooled bike? . Thanks for sharing.
+Doogie Rick Puting some smaaler tubing into those lines would do the trick, probably around 5 inches of 4mm tube pushed into the end on the damper, and then this will do damping better. Otherwise a small inline fuel filter per line also does a good damping job, as it restricts flow. Of course you can use inline needle valving to do the same, but then you need to set up all 4 at the same level, but the speed control fittings with integrated needle valves are cheap enough, just put in and tighten all to full then back off a turn.
hahaha.. -"what year is it?".. lovely Dean!..;) -and you really had me running for my pillbox yesterday! ..damn!! I really thought your shits happening...:) -great when you got them all synchro, and the whole engine fell lovley in tune!..
+Dean Segovis this was exactly what I was going to recommend. Shove some old main jets in to your tubes and that should quiet the needles up. I have ordered some gauges to build the same setup. Thanks for the inspiration Dino!
Like others, still upset about the AFD joke but its all good, lol. Dino, FWIW, using a liquid setup offers some stability to the reading because the liquid doesn't allow the vacuum pulses to jump the gauges around nearly so much. You can probably get it in the ballpark with the gauge setup you have but it'll be easier to completely balance them with a liquid based setup.
Your Manometer works but it may work better if you place some resistance between the gauge and pvc tube. Like to start a .010 dia hole or a small fish tank air line valve. Air is just too fluid to just screw a full open vaccum gauge in a tube.
Shouldn't the ignition timing have been verified first? And maybe also pressure tested the manometers. An idea for an electronic device: with an arduino with pressure sensors, it would be easy to make the damping/filtering in software :) Good video br
Does adjusting the airscrews have any affect on the manometer readings? I'm assuming it doesn't. Getting those air screwed dialed in perfectly has been tough on my CB750. People talk about the idle drop method, but mine don't seem to have a huge effect on the idle, at least not that I can see on my stock tachometer...it's very subtle shifts. I try to set them so it's running good with minimal popping on deceleration, which isn't always the exact setting for the highest idle.
Ace Futura well, bascally what is causing the needle to vibrate is rappidly changing pressure => Sound. Sound is dapmened by whool or rags, because it is absorbed. it may not have worked that well, but it would be worth a try.
Say hey - so we've exchanged a couple notes on my '72 - which is now running yay - but only with the choke on, off it dies - aww. So in an earlier note and i noticed in pics you had the pods but a) stated they'd be off in the final build, and in pics they are - could my pods be the problem - i do have the airbox? Any help most appreciated - how does one buy a sierra nevada gift card in NC from MA - my son's in Raleigh now after moving from New River/Jax, maybe he could drop a sixer off for your troubles.
I have a 1976 honda 750 that my grandfather bought new an then my father bought off him now it is in my possession. I cleaned the bottom end of the carbs and tried to start the bike after changing spark plugs and oil/ oil filter. I'm not getting fuel to the outside two carbs any idea why? I would assume it has something to do with the carbs or a clogged line I'm going to check that now if it's not that I would assume it's something inside those two carbs clogged up. do you or anyone else here have any guesses of why those two are not getting fuel?
@@HackaweekTV Hey Dean quick question I have the 74 CB750 the bike starts up first time every time with a Kickstart because the battery is completely dead throttle is real responsive only problem is is it dies unless it's throttled any advice? Everything on the bike is stock just replace the plugs put new Jets in the carburetors just can't seem to figure it out I can't keep it idling
What'd the whole gauge deal cost you? I just paid $125 (CANADIAN) for the Morgan Carbtune, and it's way, WAY superior to dial gauges. I have a set of the dials too, but I just finally wanted something decent.
+Puffin Tyler I turned them in to see where the idle dropped off. Each one slowed down at 1/2 turn so that tells me two things. One, the idle circuit is flowing fuel, two, turning them back out to one full turn smoothed the idle out. I set them all at i\1/2 turn out from the point at which they caused the idle to just start to slow down.
Are thoes the original carbs for this bike I have an 84 CB 750with completely diff carbs and I am having a heck of a time trying to run it without the stock airbox I've done everything I know how too diff jets, tapeing the aircleaners, and diff plugs and timing
I have made a electronic manometer that you would use with a 4 channel scope. made if from 4 map sensors and a 5 volt regulator. I have also made some modifications to your fuel injector tester that you made a few years ago. I would like to be able to contact you but cant find an email.

If you lower the needle the vacuum increases by closes the opening. Opening the gap reduces the vacuum.
damnnn dino you fooled me!!!!!!! i was really upset all day for you i only wish you the best from pennsylvania
yay you found the bike!!
you need airstream reduction on rubber tubes , to decrease needle jump
sort of adjustable clip or vice
Hot glue starts leaking air around 60-80 PSI. I made a crazy contraption with it once... that was where it began leaking...around 60-80 PSI.
Nice syncro tool setup.

Great Stuff Dino! I was always Curious how to Synchronize these style Carbs.
I'm surprised you havent done a compression test by this point. Otherwise the series has been very informative with loads of resources noted. Subbed.
A little grease under the carb throttle cam follower is good
Nice video, Dino!
That is amazing :) looks great:)
Using manometer to synchronize carburetors is a good idea. But we prefer to use medical dropper and some kind of oil. This is much cheaper
+Даниил Комаров that sounds cool, is there a video?
t'es une machine! good job! ;)
Wish I had seen this before I paid for the one I have your setup seems to work better and cost way less.. sigh.. Well if these ever go I will do this for sure! Thanks!
Just cut a piece of 2” open cell foam in each of the pipes and that will even the pull from the vacuum and take out the pulses
Nice :)

you can get rid of that gauge flutter with air restrictions. I used old carb jets in the tubing. The smaller the jet the better.

+Dean Segovis this was exactly what I was going to recommend. Shove some old main jets in to your tubes and that should quiet the needles up. I have ordered some gauges to build the same setup. Thanks for the inspiration Dino!
Another way to dampen those pulses is to fold the hose and clamp it with a clothes pin. Adjust it so it's a bit slack.
Nice job - thanks!

Maybe should have tried putting rags or whool into the chaimbers, works for sound dampaning too :)
+muh1h1 that would just take up air space better used for dampening
Ace Futura well, bascally what is causing the needle to vibrate is rappidly changing pressure => Sound. Sound is dapmened by whool or rags, because it is absorbed. it may not have worked that well, but it would be worth a try.
muh1h1
sure, worth a shot
So do you screw your vacuum port screw all the way back in after you're done sinking
what if you pour oil into the gauges? like they do with all of them :p that should dampen the wobble quite a bit
este é o cara!
