Okay thanks, I'll start with cleaning the contacts of the start button. I had a feeling it could be the start button because its sticky and doesn't spring out right away. I'm expecting to open it up and find something corroded and/or broken in there

Mine has a green/red wire instead of the black one. This didn't match up to the wiring diagram but I checked on eBay and found the same one that I have multiple times. I was a little confused by this. Below is a picture of the type that I have

Ah okay gotcha, I'll give it a try this weekend. Just some contact cleaner and dielectric grease?

1976 cb360t, Can't get electric start to work. It kicks over just fine and runs great, but when I push the start button, the headlight dims and the solenoid wont click. I have the 2 pin connector (red and red/white wire) connecting to one terminal, the thick gauge wire from positive to the same...

Does anyone have a cb350four airbox that they'd be willing to sell. I have the part of the airbox that houses the air filter and battery but I don't have the part of the airbox that connects the air filter to the carbs

Anyone have a spare pair of cb360 float valves?

Hi guys, I picked up a cb350f basket case which used to be someone's ambitious project, and now is my ambitious project. It came with carbs, k&n filters, and two 2-1 aftermarket exhaust. The carbs had the stock jets in them, and I'm planning on using the K&n filters, and fabbing up a 4 to 1...

Looking to buy a 4 into 1 exhaust for my cb350f build. Looking specifically for headers and collector, but let me know what you have an I'll see if it will work. Also if you have a 350f exhaust that isn't 4 into 1 I may be interested as well. Still toying with exhaust ideas in my head, so a few...

Just wanted to post an update. Compression is 160 in both cylinders, timing advancer is lubricated, and no air leaks around the carb. After some tinkering I realized that it was only idling on the left cylinder, so I took the pilot jet out of the right carb and made sure it was clean and clear...

I can double check compression tomorrow but I compression tested a few days ago and it read 160 psi in both. I haven't checked valves yet

Haha thanks for the tough love trek97...I need it after today. I really appreciate the help. I compared what you were saying to your diagram and I was agjusting the correct screws, I apologize if I was calling them different things. I sprayed starter fluid around the intake boots and the carb...

Okay I'll check that out now

It been running really well lately but still fighting that high idle. I will ride it for a bit, come to a stop and the idle will hang around 2000-2500 rpm and it will take almost a minute for it to go down to the 1200 that I have it set at. Or if its lingering around 2500 at idle, I will give it...

I wanted to post a quick update so far. I took the carbs off and cleaned them again and noticed the primary jet on the left side was slightly clogged (the same side that wouldn't originally run due to a clogged float valve.) Put it a new jet and it ran so much smoother. No more jerky...

Awesome write up, I'm going to go through the carbs once again today. Is there any other mixture screws on these carbs or is it just the idle mixture screw? I'll post my results afterwards. I have an emgo carb syncher that I just bought (the one with 4 vacuum gauges). Looks like I will need an...
