well, after all the problems ive had with installing the skunk2 manifold, and throttle cable. ive have yet MORE problems to consider. my engine, now is starting to make alot of noise when running.... not in idle though. in idle, the car runs smooth. but heres the thing, after going 2500K and higher on the tach, it makes alot of ticking noise. i had the valves done not too long ago, few months back, no more than 6 months ago. more than regular maintenance and all. when i shift it kinda sounds like a ball bering slowing down in between shifts.(different problem but i sorta disreguarded it since its been like that forever.

im just so ******* annoyed with this car i am asking you guys what u think it is. im taking it to the shop monday, but i was wondering if u guys could help too.


thanks
rob

 

it does sound like valves if its a clickin noise getting louder along higher RPMs but note that fuel injectors tend to click just as loud as valves. ive had some brand new RC 310cc injectors click loud but only at idle when cold. at first i thought it was my valves too but the injector clicking would stop clicking when revving higher so your clickin might be from the valves. hopefully it aint a rod knock

 

yeah me 2. ima check all my fuilds today just to make sure. i hope its not a rod knock either

 

i've had the exact same problem.. drove around with it for like a year.

took it to honda to get my valves adjusted and they fix'd the problem.

 

cool yeah, acutally,w hen they took off my head and put it back on, they didnt top off the oil. which quieted it down some. ill get a vavle adjustment soon too
