How do i change my valve seals.
how do i change my valve seals in my civic. i have a d15bvtec motor.
I hear there is a way do it without removing the head. Is this possible? I wanna do it myself.
Was there any previous posts with this same topic. could anybody help me out. PICTURES WOULD BE A GREAT HELP.
THANKS..

Thats a job. I wouldn't do it yourself unless your mechanicaly inclined. you don't have to take the head off but your going to need some tools and an air compressor to pressurize the cylinder so the valve won't drop. Best bet is to buy a manual even if you don't decide to do it there nice to have around.

You don't need to take of the head, but I wouldn't recomend doing it that way, because your valve guides are messed up, and so are you valve seats. I would just rebuild the whole head.
You can bring up the cylinder to TDC that you are working on, pressurise the cylinder with compressed air (compressor and compression tester line), then you can take off the springs to get to the valve seals without dropping valves inside your motor.
