I was wonderin is there anywhere else to the valve adjustment tool for the B series motors besides honda i cant find it at auto zone or advance auto. Any help would be great. thanks

 

Snap-on sells it.

You can also call Keith at 800-441-6117. He's a sponsor at my preludeonline board and carrys any tools you can think of.

good luck!

 

or you can just heat up a 10mm with a torch and bend it to a L.

 

I see alot of people looking for these I'll talk to my Tool guy. see if I can get a group buy or something

I thought they discontinued selling it. Do you have a part number?

 

I just grabbed a 10mm wrench and hit it with my sledge over my jack (hard metal) until it was bent the required 90 degrees...works like a charm!

 

here you go sir

snap on sells them for 33 bucks i bought one on friday

 

you sure its only $33? did you get it off the truck?

 

I had pretty good luck with the Gear Wrench (ratchet with a hole in the head) from Sears. I used the 10mm socket and 3" extension to turn the locknut, with a screwdriver down the middle to adjust the set screw.

Best procedure I found was:

- loosen locknut and set screw
- slip in thicker of the two allowable feeler gauges (i.e. 0.007" for GS-R intake)
- adjust set screw
- finger-tighten locknut with socket+extension
- torque down locknut with ratchet.

For me, 75% of the time the torque-down would move the setscrew slightly; it would allow the thinner feeler (i.e. 0.006") to fit, but the 0.007" wouldn't anymore. Perfect!

 

talked to the tool guy and it looks like 31bucks plus shipping. not a very good deal to me I'll keep looking for a better deal

 

does anybody ever have trouble using feeling gauges on the intake valves on the D-seies motor? the fuel injection wiring and stuff, along with other stuff back there really doesn't allow me to use feeler gauges like i've always used them... is there a honda trick that i'm not aware of? perhaps different feeler gauges?

-- $10.40 , can't go wrong...

 

Use a 3/8 10mm deep socket pressed in or welded on the box end of a 5/8 wrench. Easy and cheap to make, also - a flat head that will feed into the socket
