Hi all, I just put a JDM F22B SOHC VTEC engine in our Odyssey. I adjusted the valves ahead of time using the clearances for F22B1 (UDM Accord VTEC) but when I was running the engine for the first time there was a real lack of valve noise which has me wondering if I set them too tight. Does anyone know if the valve clearances of these 2 engines are identical? If not, where can I find this info for a JDM engine?

Thanks,

Greg

 

They are the same!

A lack of valve noise is not a bad thing if there are no issues with how the engine runs.

 

Yes, lack of valve noise is what you want.
