So i have a clicking noise that seems to be coming from under the valve cover. Before it use to do it every once in awhile but after throwing it accidentally in to 2nd gear on the freeway it clicks all the time and gets faster the higher the r's get. Any thoughts??? I have already checked the valve clearence. Thanks http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/sr...ilies/boom.gif

 

bent exhaust valves. If you mis-shifted at freeway speed, you probably bent all 8 exhaust valves.

 

That's what me and a couple of my friend were thinking to. Do you know when Vtec is suppose to crack on a H22A? Thanks

 

i thought it was somewhere around 5800 or so? maybe higher/lower? i dont know. mine cracks at 4700=]

 

mine is at 5 and a quarter.. Could just be a lifter tick eh?

 

have your block checked too. did the same thing and have bent exhaust valves, and a bent rod.

 

4900 or 5200. Mine is 5200 but I've seen others claim theirs is 4900 stock.

 

how the hell does it crack at 4700... lol???

 

He's probably tuned.

 

ok well when i checked it the valve lash clearence the first time, i did it to spec. So when i decided to check it one last time before i started the take the head and off and found out that the lock had "Walked" off and was gone??? lol i think it must have fallen down into the oil pan. So i got a new lock nut (which is impossible to find unless you go to Greg's Jap. Auto ) adjusted the clearence and now it runs great!!

Mine cracks at 5900-6000? lol

Thanks for all the advice

 

Jesus crust that's high lol.

 

Is there a difference between a F22 and a H22 Vtec Solenoid?

 

mine is around 4700-4900 not 100% sure, had it tuned with eCtune
6k sounds to high? Stock I'd say 5400

 

Yeah thats what i had thought too. You thin getting a Vtec Controller would help that?

 

mine hits at about 5400. I'm pretty sure thats stock. Either that or 5600 is stock.

 

Stock is 4900.

 

no I beleive stock is 5200, and 4900 i beleive is when the IAB's open. (could be wrong though)

 

All VTEC hondas I've driven VTEC engages over 5k rpm, except mine cause I had it tuned
And im pretty sure a H22A engine its around 5200-5400
