Well, last night i was taking apart the h22 and puttin on a new t-belt because the other was broke(ill get to that story). So i take off the tbelt tensioner and i find out that you cant just put the old t belt bakc on, ohhh no. You need some friggin tool from honda to do it. So, what i did instead was pulled the tensioner off, unscrewed the little 8mm bolt on the bottom, and screwed the tensioner down all the way and ziptied it down. ahaha.. Stuck it in, put the tbelt on, cut the ziptie and rotaed the motor a bit and worked perfectly.. Fug honda and their special tools.

SO, here is the side note on the tbelt that was broke. I ordered an h22 from hmotorsonline.. GREAT company, swap came very very complete. When i pulled the valve cover off i noticed the belt was broken... What do i do now?? I have put alot of work in to this motor before i found that problem. I put a new clutch in, thermostat, put the hcp tranny mount on, removed intake and thoroughly cleaned inside there, removed harness and put on civic one... I dont want to have to put all the **** back on, loose teh money for the tbody gasket and intake gasket, all the work with the clutch and the flywheel resurface.. But what do i do??

Thanks for the advice

I would give Steve a call and let him know the situation, personally.

What goes to show if there is any bent valves. Steve is an awesome guy and will work with ya.

Yeah definitley give them a call and let them know what is going on. It's really not too hard to pull the head off the car to take a look at the valves, and such.

Ok, what if their is damage to the head?? Do i have to put this motor back to stock and reship it??? I spent the last few days workin on this thing... ALot little **** you have to do to get it ready to go in the car..

Steve called me yesterday and left a message. What kind of reimbursement should i be looking for here if i do the work myself??
