Noisy Lifters
I have a 1996 Honda Accord with a v6 2.7. Can the valve lash be adjusted on this engine and is it to difficult to adjust them.
|
I looked briefly on Autozone and it appears the valves are solid lifters as other Accords and adjustable.
I would suggest purchasing a shop manual to be sure of adjustment procedure and lash settings. Look at Online Manuals post of DIY forum for a download manual or buy a Haynes manual. good luck |
I hear those back 3 are pretty difficult to get to on that car.
It does not effect the car in a negative way to have the valves tick some. I wouldn't personally worry much about it. |
Hondas are also known for moderately noisy injectors...?

i bought a shop manual, by chilton and its not worth a crap. doesnt show the 2.7 in detail. i took the valve cover off and cant find the adjustment screws or lock nuts. and ive adj plenty of valves before.

valves are not adjustable on this engine...buy a can of Seafoam, dump it in the crankcase, hot lap the car and see if the noise subsides. if it does, drive around for a few days and then change the oil and filter.

thanks for that mr drive, now thats info that i can use. also one last thing to have to do. As for those online manuals, first of all theres too many"suppliments" i dont know which one to click. Of the 3 sources, one wont give me privleges, the next wont download, and I dont know whats up with spooner tuner. I know I get what I pay for. I did buy a chilton manual from oreilly that was on sale and it is sorely lacking in detail. Ill have to spring for a shop manual.
