1998 Honda cr80
« on: November 10, 2013, 09:12:40 PM »
im trying to take three 5mm allen nuts off the exhaust. got two off but when I try the last one on the clutch side the allen wrench hits the frame. when I go threw the front with the t handle I cant get a good grip because of the exhaust pipe. any ideas? trying to change the gasket because its spitting fuel on my bike and so I can clean the exhaust pipe with a heat gun.

Take your exhaust off first.

Can you get a ball end allen key into the problem bolt. If so put a cresent on the short end to give you more leverage. Normaly works a treat.

If you don't fall off you are not going hard enough

Spitting fuel on your bike sounds like rich jetting. If the o-ring is shot, by all means, replace it. but you should address the problem at the source as well.

got everything change out the o ring needed to be replaced as well. started it up. it was leaking by the o ring. so now I have to see if I flip the o ring so the opening part of the o ring is on the bottom will work out better. plus I am trying to set the carb just in case its rich in jetting. any tips will be appreciated

the o ring should be in one piece, unless i am missing something.

the o ring I got from the Honda store doesn't completely rap around the muffler piece by the top end with three allen screws. there is a gap when it is on.. should it be a complete rap around?

all that i know are unbroken, the parts microfisch shows no separation. sometimes parts are mixed in the bins they stock. do you have the part # sean?

Is the "O" ring a round rubber ring, or a flat tin type seal ?
The rubber ring should be unbroken, the flat tin type has an opening.

its tin. not rubber. am I suppose to have a rubber one too. according to the picture at the shop I just need  the tin. I didn't see anything with rubber in the picture or on my bike when I took it apart. I know these bikes had problems with this area of the pipe spitting crap onto the motor. so there might be an aftermarket upgrade but I haven't found one online yet

no you have the right part then sean. maybe the pipe flange to manifold has worn out over the years. a bead of high temp silicone might help short term.

I'm with Racer on this one..  I too use high temp silicone when installing the exhaust.
