Valve Adjustment

Does anyone know a good place to get valves adjusted on a b18c1. Anywhere around the GTA? or anyone here good at it?

There's plenty to do outside my room but I choose not to!

It's pretty easy to do and the tools to do it would cost you less than paying someone to do it.

Most likely won't be too far out of adjustment... so if you're adjusting more than a couple of thou (more than 0.002") than you may want to double check your work. Borrow a in/lb torque wrench, you're gonna want either the snapon tool or a bent 10mm wrench, and offset feeler gauges. Extra valve cover gasket just in case too. Engine should be stone cold... do it in the morning before you drive.

C-speed reference is also pretty good.
