valve adjustment
 

i need valve adjustment on my car.

anybody know approximate cost from an Acura dealer?

and anyone suggest a dealer with trustful mechanic?

also please suggest me coolant/brake fluids
thanks.

any coolant...dont buy 50/50 mix...just mix it yourself, and you get more coolant for your money...

brake fluid...regualr dot3/4 fluid i would guess

valve adjustment, diy...

ya.. valve ajustment is pretty straight forward... about an hours or two if ya have a warm spot to do it.. not sure what the dealer would charge.. call em..

I know a guy. He's no Acura tech, but he sure knows his way around Hondas. DAVEYO!!! PM him.

go buy a haynes manual... 17 bucks... outlines the whole process...

I have a buddy, an Acura Mech for 10yrs now. $50 for valve adj. A little more if he is to come where you are. LMK. He gets back from Cuba Friday.

Also a good deal^ I still say D.I.Y. though...

which mechanic is DaveYo than? and where? lol

I read some DIY instructions online on B engines
and I've never done it before and it says
suggest not to DIY if its your first time lol
and yes, i've never done it.

one more question -0-
opening valve cover and doing internal stuff seems to crazy to me
is there any possibilities the mechanic mite screw my car up seriously?
and every how long is neccesary? ignoring what the owners manual says.

thanks!

if you're doing it yourself (on a dohc vtec engine) either get a 12mm jam nut adjusting tool or a bent ass 12mm wrench to get down into the head.
I can do a valve adjustment, if you feel like coming out to hamilton (PM me). Only takes like 1/2 an hour, but needs to be done on a cold engine.
