i thought that Snap-On made a honda-specific valve adjustment tool...but i checked their site and couldnt find one.

does honda make one ?

 

Snap On does make one. You need to look under: valve - valve adjustment - Metric Jam Nut type adjustment tools.
The stock number should be YA8895
Just make sure its the 10mm one.

Heres mine:

thank you !

 

$$$$?

 

40-50 bucks you will shell out.

Basically it'll pay for itself after the first time you use it.

Worth it IMO.

Dont forget the feeler gauges.

 

I want one of these. I checked snapons website http://buy.snapon.com/catalog/search.asp?partno=YA8895&search_typeart&store=snapon-store

It mentions 12mm for the part. Then in small text lists 10mm. WTF. Is this the right part?

 

This tool is actually made by Schley Tool Co. They make all kinds of speciality tools like this including one that fits inside of the Honda harmonic balancer and holds it tight so you can unfasten the center bolt. Most tool trucks (Mac, Matco, Snap-on, etc.) carry the Schley tools or search on the net.

Thanks for the tip. Link did not work, sorry. I ordered from skyway tools/toolweb.

They are much less confusing since they have seperate part numbers for the 10, 12 and 13 mm tools. I just finished ordering from them. My car needs some lovin...
