h22
i was looking at the ultimate h22 swap guide thing and this came from that:
The irony of it all, is that, unfortunately, a lot of tuners unfortunately will spend $2300 or more on an H22A only to wreck the valve train resulting in over a thousand dollars in repairs or worse, an entirely new engine only a few months later because of a factory defective autotensioner.
Honda has tried to fix this problem for years, but the secret lies in converting to a manual tensioner from a relative of the H22A. In our guide, not only will you get a detailed how-to on how to fix the problem, but also included is every detail down to the part numbers you need to reference at your local Honda parts counter.
This little known trick of professionals, just by itself, could save you the cost of your motor alone! Listen to what Jonah Neumann of Chicago has to say about the guide and the autotensioner issue:
