Well, after a few days to reflect on the task completed last weekend.......here are my humble impressions.
As MyBladder indicated above, 1/2 of the 16 valves were "in spec" on my 2002, w/only 7-8 loose ones. With 31,000+ miles on the clock, I've never heard much valve tapping but what I'd describe as almost a " static " noise coming from my beloved 2.0. Well, it's practically gone now.
For those really considering this, it really helps to have a crack expert team behind you to check & recheck your efforts.
When it's all done, and when you
, there is great piece-of-mind that everything spinning around in there is adjusted just as the Honda engineers designed.
Thanks for the help, conversation, pizza & expertise Phil & Rod. Thank you Jaglady for the early AM conversation & delicious hot coffee in a Scuderia Ferrari Mug no-less!
