I have a 2003 CRV(my first crv).I was wondering(since it has 150,000miles)how intense it is to check the valve clearances.On the motorcycle V-Tech it is a lot of work.You must remove the cams and disable the V-tech to inspect the clearances,then remove the cams to undisable the v-tech and pull the shims to make adjustments.then start over to reinspect to be certain the clearances are correct.Then remove again to put the v-tech back and ready.
Is the car version like this?And if so would one need special tools as is neede with the motorcycle engines?The motorcycle engines hold thier clearance for a very long time,but the car engines get a very lot more miles on them.
Thanks in advance for any input.
