I had the valves' clearance checked at 41K miles. Have never had the valves adjusted, although they were checked at 16K miles.

All intakes were at 0.17mm; all exhausts at 0.25mm. Perfect. Cylinder pressures were: 200, 210, 200, and 205 PSI for numbers 1-4, respectively. 178 would be good. Time to "blow-it-out" --not!

It seems that the valves seldom need attention. Neat.

Always glad to hear how often they don't need to be adjusted... After my 32k check, if nothing has changed I'll probably put it off 'til the big 100k... not recommended it's probably just what I'll do.

An appalling display of Honda's institutional lack of soul or character, isn't it?
