/ @ajrestoration This is parts 1 to 3 of the flooded GX390 combined, Some viewers asked if I could combine all the parts into one, and I love to keep my viewer happy. This is a lengthy video, so grab some popcorn and your favorite snacks. If you already saw parts 1 to 3, please skip this one.
I found this Honda GX390 at the recycling yard and it looks like it was flooded, I could not let it die, go to the crusher, be melted down, and become a sad Coca-Cola can.
This is my attempt at saving it, just remember I am not a professional, I will probably do something stupid, and stuff something up hahaha anyways
I hope you enjoy the video.

Beautiful job! 👍🏼 Thank you for not polluting your interesting work with unbearable music.
I way prefer the sound of metal grinding and the occasional background bird chanting to the ever-popular boom-boom soundtracks of these ideos.
You’re a master. ;)
Thank you very much! I am glad you enjoyed my video!
Nice job
Nice friend
Check valve clearance and correct them the knocking sound will vanish. 🔥🔥🔥

I've used this sprayer several times now on brick pavers, a wood deck, patio, and a driveway. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX It has performed as expected on all surfaces. For larger areas like the decks and patios, I think I will be looking into a surface cleaner attachment to speed up the job, or at least make it a little easier. Hose and sprayer connections are tool-less, tight, and quick. I used the yellow nozzle on the concrete/brick surfaces, and the pressure was adequate for cleaning those surfaces.I am disappointed that these units are still being shipped with a nozzle storage holder that allows them to vibrate out of the holder way too easily and become lost, but I don't want to knock off a star for that reason. The functional part of the washer works very well, so I would recommend this product.
Just rebuilt my GX 200, ( on a power washer I got from my dad, easily from mid 1990s) added electric start. Wish I had seen your video before that, but it was a blast to watch. Great engines. Thanks for a great video.
They are fun to work on too! They are kind of complicated, yet simple the same time.

Overall nice. You should have set the coil air gap with a business card or something similar. You can't just eyeball it. That may be what's scraping. Also, by completely removing the governor arm, you need to index it with the throttle plate in the carb. And I would have oiled the bore before inserting the piston. Yeah, I know you oiled the rings, but the bore is important too. And even on a small engine like this, it's important to find out what the sequence of bolt tightening is. You'll get there. You've got the big stuff covered!
You did a great job, I see you have very nice spray painting skills
one of the cleanest restores on an engine i have ever seen on this platform well done
Thank you so much! I always try my best.

I enjoyed the video and how carefully you do the work. Others should watch and learn from u
This is EPIC ! I watched is first in the morning, then again at midnight. wow , love it. I am taking notes.
... похоже на то, что этот двигатель нашли на дне какого-то водоёма, но реставрация выглядит очень хорошо, выглядит как будто новый, здоровья и благополучия тебе мастер, новых творческих успехов!!!
So when I watched you put the lifters in I saw that the lifter closest to you didn't slide in smoothly you had to force it in and when you did it sounded like it was scratching, When you put those lifters in they need to move freely in and out, if you stick it in it should fall right back out that's how smooth they need to be, I wouldn't run the thing for long with a lifter knock, it could cause further damage to the engine. Besides that you did an excellent job. (p/s, make sure both lifters move freely not just one of them and remember which hole came out of because they need to go back in the same hole)
You and Machinery restorer have helped me start doing restorations on this kind of stuff. I bought a used parts washer and a sand blaster and I’m building a mini paint booth because I can’t powder coat where I live and I don’t have the money. As my big project I have a John Deere LX176 lawn mower that was my grandfathers and I’m going to do a body restoration on it. And as my small project I also have a craftsman engine from the late 70’s that I’m going to “somewhat” restore. I’m only going to do a custom paint job on it only because it already runs really really well and doesn’t smoke at all. I’m thinking a yellow and black paint scheme also little black pin stripes since those are my favorite colors. Hopefully I’ll move up to restoring a whole mower or a tractor someday.
Hey they have powder coating setups for cheap on Amazon and at harbor freight.
Sounds like something is hitting the fan shroud . Nice R@R video. You do very nice work.

The looks to be of high quality as it’s disassembled. Old school Honda.
대박 손재주가 대단합니다
녹슨을것을 새것으로 탈밖금했네요 👍👍👍👍
Я такой , только 270 ушатанный ремонтировал лет 15 назад. Тогда запчастей не было на него у нас, пришлось оставить поршень (на удивление в хорошем состоянии и кольца удалось добыть) и загильзовать цилиндр жигулевской гильзой. Износ нижней головки шатуна убирал понижением привалочных поверхностей и пришабривал потом его к коленвалу. До сих пор работает на минитракторе..
C’est excellent merci beaucoup pour l’exercice ❤❤❤❤❤
Awesome job I’ve learned so much
Beautiful restoration thanks
Hard, arduous work but the effect is excellent. Best wishes 🥰😘👍
Thank you so much 😊
I have disassembled and repaired thousands of such engines. I was interested in watching a layman do this work. I was laughing most of the time, but when he took out your flywheel WITH A HAMMER, I DIDN'T LAUGH, I CRIED!!! Engine knocking is a distant echo of hammer blows! Just kidding... Check that the flywheel isn't resting on anything. Congratulations on your hard work!
callin' BS, on thousands thats a lot
The GX range is a great engine to work with and on...bulletproof....this restoration is on another level...your attention to detail is awesome......love the colour scheme you have used.....🙂...🏴
C’est excellent merci beaucoup pour l’exercice 👍✌️👏🌺💐🌹
You deserve a medle for the time of work and Evy penny you make great job mate first class Dave thanks for your help big thumbs up
When reinstalling the start rope in the handle, it always best to make a figure 8 knot like the other one in the recoil housing. Overall, you should have a long lasting engine.
I too thought the handle knot was insufficient
Gracias por subir ese video ha sido de gran utilidad para mi aprendizaje muchas gracias amigo
Its very cool and impressive 👍👍👍

I love these tear downs and restore videos
I don’t know enough about engines to replicate this, but was fascinating to watch. Wonderful job! Thank you. You need to make your own gaskets! Very satisfying to watch.
I have no idea where that sound is coming from, but I believe after a couple of castle lagers it won’t sound so bad , cheers my maat , geniet 😁🍻
🎉 nice job that the kind work i love to do
Gracias, exelente video, saludos desde Mexico :D
The knocking noise is far more than a valve. I believe it is the connecting rod either on the pin end or the crank end. That should have been miced and tested with a compression strip. These bearingless connections are really a flaw in the design.
Was the conrod, crank end. I have replaced it since and its quiet now.
good to watching
Glad you enjoyed it
Absolutely stunning
Thank you so much!
very nice video to watch, thank
The sound is coming from the alternator wheel. Hitting the pick up
Hi , I am happy you made it well and I learned from you .and I hope you send us videos lak that from A to Z.thank you so much.
Lotta work,I believe well worth it.keep it up 👍👍👍😎😎😎
Thanks, will do!
i just struggled for half a day getting the exhaust pipe off one of these. the nuts came off no problem. but i couldn't pull the pipe off. Ended up shattering the cast iron into bits until i could spin the studs out lol
Lo felicito amigo usted es un ejemplo para todos los mecanicos y principalmente a los empíricos muchas bendiciones desde Colombia.
Amazing 😮
Una restauracion completa, un gran trabajo, definitivamente eres un experto
Note 10 ✅
good job
Honda must have red and white color, have a good day
Not this one haha this one is mine, I can make it pink if I want to haha, thank you I hope you also have a good day.
Awesome!
Amazing work man
Thanks a lot!
Excelente!! 👏👏👏👏👏
Great job, I have everything to do one but time. Don’t forget to put the inner air filter wing nut on. You will suck in dirt if you don’t.
this machine if do a service if you pulled a machine a parts and it back if you set the timeing worng have a gas what is going to happen will it started or it will damage everything
Professional 👍
Thanks 👍
I think something is rubbing on the pulling system…maybe the plastic?? cover? It doesn’t sound like valves to me as the engine sounds really heathy!! GREAT JOB!!!
Turned out to be a bad conrod.
Main reason I love Honda is they all have low oil shut down on them
Not all of them, the older models don't have them.
Also if the engine is for a Go Kart the low oil sensor is removed
Good job very good
Powiem krótko Pięknie szacunek
Sounds like the pull rope assembly to me making the knocking sound!!
Great video! I have a question I hope you can provide your thoughts on. I have a crankshaft on my GX390 that is that is .0004 beyond (4.1416) its service limits (1.415). This condition is only on one spot...all other measurements are at or above the service limit. This engine drives a generator and I dont believe the cranks are not available currently. The engine ran great, but I hate putting this back together with this condition. It does have an out of round condition on the journal of 0.0017 worst case.There are no oversized bearing for this motor. Any thoughts/advice on using this crank?
nice work new lock
Thanks 👍
Nice looking job. Wondering why you did away with the low oil switch.
tighten up bearing cup on the cranksharft thats the rattle
Nice
Motor was probably used on a walk behind concrete saw. The Honda motor was used on a ton of small engine equipment for construction.
About the noise: I think the piston head is hitting either the gasket or the head. When you fit a larger piston it nay give those problems, as it is bigger bore piston may hit the gasket or as it is another piston it may be longer from pin to head size. Inspection will tell, the hitting point will be gray / different color, even if it has only run for a few minutes.
1:02:17-1:02:31
Is this noise normal? I hear some grinding. Or is this just because lack of oil?
sound's like the cranksharft bearing cap a little more tightening and only a little but check the valves to but it sounds like the cranksharft
Wow! It stated flooded, but that's a lot of water in the oil, lol
I know!! It was soaked.
ซ่อมได้ เยี่ยมมาก
That line-up of all the parts made me feel anxious. 😅
Forgot the anti-surge spring and muffler deflector and not restored to the original paint.
Its all okay, next one i'm making pink.
Thanks , arrow on the piston 👍👍👍now I know
Glad to help
Hi, thanks
39:54 - 😂
Haha I also had the same reaction when that happened.
Muy buena restauración bro te faltaron unos pocos detalles pero me encanta que los limpias pintas y quedan muy bellos te tengo envidia de las máquinas y herramienta 🤣🤷🏻♂️🥲
Hola cómo se llama esa pieza que aparece en el minuto 8:02 necesito comprar. Alguien sabe?
🙏👍👍👍 good job 👌👌👌
Thanks 🙏
Good video rebuild Honda 360 engine,
Le cognement provient peut être de la tête de bielle ovalisée , er il me semble avoir vu le dépassement du piston a vérifier. Mais vu l'état de l'huile au remontage, la bielle est certainement usée ovale
Вы супер механик реставратор!😊
I just finished watching several of your videos. Excellent work. I would like to recondition and plate my bolts for my projects. What solutions do you use, how to mix them and in what order, and how much voltage and time used for the plating process? Thanks again. Ken
That is a trade secret, he cant let people know.
Excelente video amigo,
Una consulta cuanta luz debe tener la luz de los anillos de un motor estacionario honda gx 270.
Awesome video. Learned a lot. Did you aligned the gaps for the rings around the piston?
I got no idea what’s going on but I watched it anyway
Good morning from Southeast South Dakota
Muchas gracias por el paso a paso
Got a question. What model number is the right one for the Honda engine on my trail wagon 400 side by side. Also what main jet size in the carb? The engine runs too lean. Thanks
Nice❤❤❤
Many many thanks buddy!
Sadəcə professional
Valve adjustment should be done at compression top dead center. You seem to have done it at exhaust top dead center.
And the engine must be cold.
Valves were done to spec. It was the conrod that needed replacement.
Before inspection cover goes on oil should have been put in and all bearings gears etc coated while filling
Correct
👍عمل جيد جداً ورائع الله يبارك فيك ويحفظك يارب
Всем людям с золотыми руками удачи здоровья
bon travail
Good
Did you check the valve clearance? Beautiful restoration, great job.
I did, it turned out to be a worn conrod. I have the new part, I just have to fit it.
@@AJRestoration Figured it might either be a really bad valve spring, loose metal in the muffler or rod knock since it was pressure related upon throttle up. :) Thanks for the look into a GX390.
Perfecto 💪👌
So are you! Haha thanx for the comment!
@@AJRestoration 😁✌️
What is that third shaft connected to the crankshaft by the those gears? Is that just extra counterweights?
I do knows a bouts it i been services this machine before it last for over 20 years
I saw on another video that the counter shaft was off one tooth and was just tapping the connecting rod. That engine made the same sound. Just a thought.
how long do you keep the parts you powder coate in the oven??
Estoy sorpredido como le a dado vida nuevamente😮
I think the sound is either something vibrating 🤔 or crankshaft side to side play.
Although this is a super late comment.
The conrod was done for. I had to replace it.
@@AJRestoration shoot, i was hoping that wasn't what it was.
Glad you got her going though brother!
Honda's are good engines
Reliable as all can be when taken care of.
Excelente
MUY ILUSTRATIVO
