what's the general opinion on having HONDA do it? I'm debating. I don't really have the technical skillz to try and atempt it, and the dealership says it's not that expensive.
But i've heard that you should only have a trusted mechanic do it, because other's may be "sloppy"...

Isn't the firing order wrong? 1-3-4-2 Why are you adjusting it different order than the firing order?
you should turn it clockwise to keep the correct firing order. our engines turn clockwise.
some people might want to turn counter-clockwise to make it easier to turn(no compression), but if you do this, you will have to go backwards(1-2-4-3)
or you can just take out your spark plugs and go clockwise to make it easier
