Default I just got my valve adjustment

I got my valves adjustment from my friend cousin shop. He did it only for 50 with replacement of the OEM gasket with those little plugs also. He said my valves where +1 on the loose side whatever that means. My car runs great now super smooth but kinda miss the roughness.

Yeah he asks me to bring whomever I want. This guy really good he has all those award from and he is Factory trained I think he was one of the top guys. His shop is located on Valley near the 605 freeways so if you guys live around there you should check him out. Normally valve adjustment from Honda is about 120-160 and they don't let you watch.

I understand from reading other post is that if you rev hard all the time you should get valve adjustment more often 25k some member but if you don't I would get it about eveyr 50k like me. Also get your valves check at the same time
