Ok, I have a 94 Integra RS, and I need to replace the lifters and do a valve adjustment.

Can anyone who has done this tell me what kind of job I'm in for? I'm pilfering all the parts from a spare head I have sitting around.

I just ordered the Honda service manual, but other than that I've not too much experience with this sort of thing.

there are no lifter in your non vtec motor ..you adjust valves with your cams in and on tdc ...using feeler guage between rocker and cam lobe..good luck

 

so i just took a look at my spare head....

now where is it that I make the adjustment? on the nut the attaches on the end of the rocker arm? i'll get a pic if you don't know what I'm trying to describe

also, where am I going to get a feeling gauge?

 

feeler gauge can be purchased from any auto parts store i.e. Autozone, sears, olympic auto parts etc....

 

that's what i understand. for some reason i was under the impression that you needed a specific one or something. like i said, this will be my first serious work on the engine besides changing oil or any other simple jobs

 

you adjust the valve by loosening the nut on the of rocker (lock )and adjust clearance with flat head screw driver or vaLve adjusting tool and lock the nut back up when you have the correct clearance
