Honda CB 400n oil + oilfilter change 

Glad I could help :D

Im glad I could help. 😃

That's awesome! I hope my video is helping you.

No she is in perfect condition. Only the front bakes don't work. I hope you have fun with your Honda, and get it running Oh and my clutch is slipping. Thank you very much :D.

Well said Alfie...You saved me the bother..

Sorry can you explain a little bit what you mean? Thank you. There will be a few more videos about the Honda but not in the near future. (Brakes/brake lines...)

Faska Restoration sorry i meant tyres:)

Either you can feel it that she has more power, or you look in the papers it should stand there. The engine is basicly the same just the camshaft is sharper, if you find a 43hp camshaft you can easily convert it. I hope this has helped you.

What really? Do you have a picture or a part number? Thx for the info.

Its part no 5 (only a thin washer) This link is for a 250 but 400 is the same. www.cmsnl.com/honda-cb250n-1978-england_model15802/partslist/E12.html#.YLonGuHPyyI

When you take off the filter the washer is stuck to it and usually thrown away with the filter.

At a Honda dealership, I think 20€

It's also for the Oilfilter housing.

What, where? I didn't even know that there existed oil cooling for this model. My model was first registered in (European date) 5.4.1982. Everything is still original. And if you tell me where I can find the engine code/Modell I'll write it too.

​@@FaskaRestoration From what I can tell so far only the cb450 n/dx/sc and possibly other versions made for the brazil market came with oil coolers. The coolers were connected through holes in the lower crankcase just above the filter. I've highlighted this here drive.google.com/file/d/1uELkBzlixsv3zJeideEerDqma6UERcVF/view?usp=sharing Oil coolers came in two variants, mounted higher on the frame or directly on the motor. Most models I've seen of the cb400 have regular fins all across the lower crankcase. Since the cb 450 sc came out in 82 with just slightly larger bore it would make sense for honda to share the same engine castings for both models. I'm not actually sure there would be any indication on the crankcase to tell the difference but I would think all of the same version (A/B/C/D) version would have the same crankcase. Since your bike is 82 that would be either a late B version or early C from what I know. Most likely C since the B versions are probably too early for having that crankcase. I believe if you check your VIN it would be CB400N23XXXX if it's a C model or cb400N22XXXXX if it's a B model.

@@joakimeliasson3244 Wow you know a lot about Honda I've checked It and it's actually CB400N32XXXXX... What does that mean? Oh and I found out that it was build 28.1.1982, but it was sold and got a license plate 5.4.1982 (European date). And I have another question it's a cb400n like you can see and read all over the bike, but in the paper the model is " CB 400 T" how or what? Maybe a mistake?

@@FaskaRestoration Wow that's really interesting. I've heard many mistakes were made registering bikes back in the day so it is possible. Since the F and T stood for four and twin respectively in the precursors cb400T and cb400F and the sibling bike to the CB400N were named CM400T (T=Touring), they might have put a T instead of a N seeing as it could be confusing. Some countrys including Germany imported restricted models as well as standard models. Restricted models came with different VIN, in the case of Germany they would usually add 1 to the first digit, thus your bike would be equivalent to cb400n22xxxxx, ie. model B but restricted to 20kW. Maybe you could see in the papers if it's still restricted or if it ever was restricted?

@@joakimeliasson3244 Very interesting. It's actually still restricted to 27ps/20kw they did that because of the insurance. In Germany if your bike was under 27/20kw ps it was a lot cheaper to insure. This was done through a different camshaft, but it is exactly the same engine. We still have something like that in Germany but the rules (different ps/kw and weight) had changed a lot and today you have 3 different types of motorcycle driver licenses too. (Too complicatet to write it all down here)

No I have no Leake in the cower, the oil marks on my muffler are 100% my fault I spilled some off camera. Did you use new o ring as well? Or maybe it is the hollow screw that has a crack somewhere?

@@stanisaww9543 could it be possible that your oil pan has a small Crack?

Ive heard youre supposed to oil up the o ring before mounting💁‍♂️

@@gamlebardun Yes that is correct 3:38

By the way, I never changed the rubber gaskets and had no leaks, all was fine.

It is nearly finished. There are still a few things to do.

Finde ich auch, vorallem das der Filter mit einer Feder nach oben gedrückt wird.

Seltsam, ja. Mit wie viel Drehmoment hast du denn die Ölablassschraube und die Schraube des Ölfiltergehäuses angezogen?

@@fredfraggle683 Das habe ich nach Gefühl gemacht. So fest das es nicht abfällt aber auch nicht festknallen das es abreißt. Wenn du merkst das es undicht ist kannst du ja noch ein bisschen nachziehen.
