    '82 CB750K cylinder #1 plug sooting

    We've been doing .005 intake and exhaust... factory specs are a little tight as I mentioned earlier...750s are known for running lean..it's the exhaust valve on that cylinder..... We are dealing with thousands of an inch so yes it can make a difference.and of course proper ignition timing.. if...

    '82 CB750K cylinder #1 plug sooting

    I completely understand... I'm thinking more carburetor.. when you did Jets and the rebuild,.. did you use genuine kehein(jets,etc) parts.. aftermarket rebuild kits I've found have been pretty unreliable.

    Seems like you got it covered.. you could check valve clearances.. go through and look for any big discrepancies... .005 intake/exhaust

    1981 CB750K Gas Tank Swap.

    Yes most of those tanks for those years are interchangeable.. my cb750f tank holds a little over 5 gallons... That's a lot of riding,.. there's not really a gas tank dent repair service.. if it's not too mangled the reputable body shop could take care of it, I got my used for a reasonable price...

    Swap your plugs around or try a new plug and see if it still happens I've had bad plugs out of the box before sometimes we overthink things.

    All 4 carbs overflowing

    Are you using aftermarket bowl gaskets?..where is the fuel coming from?. unfortunately some aftermarket rebuild kits are not that good,... Is it coming from the overflow, or is it coming from the float bowls themselves?

    1980 Honda CB750F Runs with choke then dies with choke off.

    Stay away from aftermarket rebuild kits(junk)..and protect all gaskets from over spray from Gumout(carb cleaner)...older gaskets will deform...use a hair dryer or a heat gun on low on your rubber boots(airbox,intake)..it will make things a lot easier..and put all your linkages on..move airbox...

    Balancing carbs - just a quick question

    Well yes all opening at the same time from the same starting point I pretty much thought that was understood, and you surely wouldn't need gauges to find that out you can do that visually

    All 4 carbs overflowing

    I always give them a slight little tap when I first put fuel to them.. it can help seat but if you have all four overflowing that's a bit of a problem

    Balancing carbs - just a quick question

    I misunderstood you...synchronized carbs means they all open at the same time,..we still use mercury gauges... we start with air idle if there's any question not synchronize which I can get closer on the bench than most people with gauges,...air idle mixture is how you smooth it out, if that is...
