Another CB3 carb

[checarter15]

wow a carb? is been a while that i seen one of those, clean ride man

[evil_demon_01]

Thanks man for the info.
Not too sure about the h22 yet lots of work with the fuel lines and fuel pump and that sort of stuff, but might one of these days ya never know or maybe
B18c just to be different?

B18C doesnt have enough torque to pull the weight of the CB.
H22 is a better option.
A fuel injection swap CAN be done with good results though is time consuming and costly.
Hows things been with you? And whens summer coming

I didn't know they made these with carbs. Mind boggling

Welcom Dude!

Hey were neighbours (check the spelling out) !

I think the engine block is the same but different bore.

Your carb must be economical since it is smaller displacement (great for this fuel climate) and easy to maintain without any annoying CEL to come on.

Keep it clean as its a nice CB!

Check your timing and fuel air mixture as it may be running rich. Take a wift of the exhaust to tell (for Carbs you are the computer).

Check enough air is entering too (that the air filter is not clogged)

Not too bad dude.

Nice choice CB's.. Honestly i only acquired the liking recently but prior to that i was into Preludes!

NZ has all essentially all JDM cars so your in a nice place to get all the JDM goodies.

Everywhere else theres red tapes!

Keep the CB clean as the shape is a good balance of smartness and sporty, without being too chunky, heavy and fuel guzzling like the newer cars.

whats a wift??well recently i've been having problem with the carb but now its okay,but fuel is killing me

Lol...sorry its a slang.

Wift means a light smell or indirect smell.

Since there is no computer to let you know if your running too rich or too lean you have to do it the traditional method which is by human judgement.

For this you must smell the actual exahust gases and determine if you smell too much fuel or not or just right.

A harsh fuel smell means its too rich. No smell can be borderline normal to being too lean. Some unleaded smell means normal to rich. Thats where fine tuning and experience comes in (provided your rings and valves are ok to not put burning oil smell in the equation you will be able to smell the unleaded fuel).

I know what you mean about fuel being a killer. Once the CB is in tip top shape (incl tyre inflation and driving style) the only area you can save with significant impact is actually on decreasing the use of the vehicle.

That is either by car pooling, living closer to work, changing work to be closer to home, changing times to travel off peak on the road or changing your lifestyle and travel less socially. Its tough i know but no amount of tuning will significantly save you fuel (enough to feel the savings instantly) other than the above.

Yea this is my first Cb i had Ca's before that, i like them handles better than tha ca steerings heavier which i like.

There heaps of JDM stuff over here, but not miuch for the CB unfortunatly.
