lost my engine
 

i just finished doing a valve adjustament on my old pos accord and it's running so damn smooth now. it took me about 2 hrs to do it but it was well worth it. i can't even feel the shifts from the tranny and the engine is a lot quieter now. if i would't have the damn leak in my flex pipe the car would be totally silent at 4k rpms. also i noticed a lot more low end power and better throttle response. goodby machine gun engine. did i say it was my first valve adjustement ? (the first one i did myslef)





Pat me on the back ;)

good job... honda's need valve adjustments bad...

Good job. That is actually one of those things that I'm not looking forward to doing.....

*pat pat* good job

Nice man, any advice for me and my car?

heh the exhaust was easy, the intake valves were a biatch because of the manifold and the fuel rail. trere is no way around it than to use a bent feeler gauge.

good job man

good job stefan....daddy's pround of u:yes:

*pats stefan's back* Good job!:yes:

for anyone whos about to do an adjustment.
if you tighten them a little tighter than stock specs you gain a little power due to more lift.

yeah mine were way to tight for the intake ones, so it would not close the valve properly. i could hear the sound of the detonation thru the intake :no:

good job man..:yes:

haha, it's nice to have the right tools ;) sorry stefan gotta bust your balls once in a while

but then again the right tools cost $50 for the tool and $30 in feeler guages...stupid Snap On

Still cheaper than paying Honda to do a valve adjustment though, even with $80 in tools.

that's cause you gotta pay for my tools when i'm adjusting them ;)

Haha... true :D
