Default i need to do a cheap service to my car, what do i do ?

well i need to do a service to my car, its running like ****..

i know it needs an oil change..
so oil, and an oil filter..

my air conditionor is fucked, i fitted a belt and the bearings on the condensor is fucked..
so i think i need a new condensor....

i have a clicking noise under my rocket cover.. i spoke to my mechanic.. he said it just needs an oil change.. though i think my valves might need adjusting or something..
now i dont have the tools or the knowlege to do this..
naw do i want to try to do it, but if i take the valve cover off, ill need a gasket and ring set wont i?


any help with doing a service would help.. plz feel free to help..

its a 89 integra LS b18a1

You should take it to a dealer and let them check it out.I work at a dealership right know and the only thing i could think of To do is

OIL
TRANS FLUID
PLUGS
VALVE ADJUSTMENT
VALVE COVER GASKET
WIRES
CAP/ROTOR
CHECK YOUR DRIVE BELTS
CLEAN THROTTLE BODY
CLEAN IACV(SEEN A THREAD ABOUT THAT)
ENGINE DECARB

you need to learn to spell and complete sentences if you expect people to be able to accurately respond to your questions. SERIOUSLY!

u 'fitted a belt'? what the hell is that? and there are no bearings in your condensor. are you talking about the compressor?

adjusting your valves, there are how to's on Team Integra and you can get the adj tool off amazon.com for under $15.

get a haynes manual (or similar) for your car, read it, learn it, search for answers to your questions.

telling you to better / properly explain your car issues is not USELESS.

neither is telling you where to get the tool and instructions on doing your valve adjustment.

take it easy, he's from Down Under and their dialect is a little different than ours, like how the British say "boot" instead of "trunk"
