Bad Valve Guide?
Is it possible for a N/A prelude H22a with just i/h/e and VAFC to get/messups a valve guide after 44K miles? No major down shifting or hitting the rev limiter. Do these things go bad after a while?

Re: Bad Valve Guide? (Sushi X)
do i compression test to see what numbers u get and a leakdown test to see where the culprit is...could be a number of factors and the leakdown test helps u narrow it down
