Hey Guys
Well I was pulling the head off my 00 ITR this morning and I found something kind of odd? Orange Valves? Any reason why this could have happened? I think I had some bad gas a few weeks back but nothing else I can tell?





ah and one of the new Garage!



You cant get the AAAHHHHHHH! fealing of how bright the lights are from the pic though!

 

fuel additives or octane boosters can have that effect.

im used to looking at plugs to tell motor conditions

 

hey you guys are awesome! I forgot I put some fuel additive in there to try and help the bad gas

 

did you do a recent valve adjustment? it's looks almost like you burnt them?&gt; it could also be from spark plug gap being too wide, but looks more burnt valves..

 

yes its caused from an over dose of octane booster it makes it smell like lighter fluid out your exhaust too lol

 

yes I have adjusted my valves in the last 500 miles and I buy sprak plugs from Honda (they are pregapped)

 

Man, minus the ugly CF hood that is abeautiful VSM Civic. Props to whoever she belongs to, or used to belong to.

 

Well the part you can see of her anyway. But oh what the imagination does for the rest of her.
