seized up engine
« on: June 27, 2005, 06:59:49 PM »
wa sup out der? this is my first post and my first moyorcycle.i purchased a1975 honda 750 ohc for 50 bucks of an old lady,its been sittin around in er yard for at least 8 years.but it does have all da pipes on it and carbs and the gas had been drained out.but i cant get it out a gear when i moved it so i pretty much had to carry it with a buddy!i have gotten advice from people to take the plugs out and pour in pb blaster or wd 40 or even diesel and ley er soak for a couple of days,to loosen up the pistons.and they say to drain the oil out and pour in automatic transmission fluid and let it soak.so i might try that unless i hear of any other sugestions or if anybody else has been through this and had success.but this might sound stupid but im new to all this ,but i dunno where to refill the oil?where can this be found?would much apreciate feed-back thanx .......Drey

Sit on the bike... behind the side cover on your right side is the oil tank.. this is where you re-fill from.
