1981 Honda CB750K camshaft chain tensioner adjustment (step by step)

Описание к видео 1981 Honda CB750K camshaft chain tensioner adjustment (step by step)

This video is in response to a previous video (   • 1981 Honda CB750K camshaft chain tens...  ) that I did some time ago where I was only asking some people if the adjustment made any difference since I could not hear a difference before and after. At that time, I omitted to loosen the top bolt.

The title of the original video was misleading and it implied that it was the actual how-to, which it was not. After reading some comments I decided to do a new video showing the step-by-step procedures to accomplish the adjustment of the camshaft chain/tensioner.

To adjust the chain, you need to loosen one (1) screw/bolt and two (2) nut caps. The screw/bolt is in the front of the cylinder block. The nut caps are in the back of the block. Here is the link to FLICKR with static pictures showing their location: https://www.flickr.com/gp/27219978@N0....

Tools needed:
-10mm socket and wrench for the front screw/bolt.
-14mm open end wrench for the nut securing the front screw/bolt.
-10mm wrench for the back nut caps. (NOTE: I recommend getting a gear wrench to make it easier to loosen/tighten the nut caps).

Instructions:
CAUTION: The engine block and exhaust will get very hot. The back nut caps are a little difficult to reach so be careful not to burn yourself.
-Remove the headlight, tail light, turn light fuses to reduce drain on the battery while moto is in idle.
-Start the moto and allow to warm up to normal temperature.
-Adjust RPM if needed.
NOTE: DO NOT fully unscrew the screw/bolt or nut caps.
-At idle rpm, slightly loosen the front nut first using a 14mm wrench. Then, loosen then screw/bolt using a 10mm socket.
-At idle, unscrew the upper and lower nut caps at the back using a 10mm wrench (gear wrench recommended).
-The chain will self adjust by the tensioners pushing on the chain after you loosen it.
-Slightly blip the throttle to make sure tensioner stretches the camshaft chain.
-At idle, tighten the upper and lower 10mm nut caps at the back of the block.
-At idle, tighten the 14mm nut first then the 10mm screw/bolt.
Adjust RPM if needed (1000rpm +/ 100) or as desired.
-Re-install fuses (if previously removed).
-Done. Enjoy.
