as the title says..
this is on an 05 type-S.
about 3 months ago i was driving on the interstate and accidently mis-shifted from 6th to 3rd and my RPM went waaay up to about 9500rpm for about 2 seconds.
ever since then, my ivtec just doesnt seem to pull as hard as it used to. i dont know if im just used to the car now or what, but my butt-dyno says it feels a loss of power.
the car idles fine and everything else, and i dont think i hear any pinging going on, just doesnt seem to pull as hard and when i turn off the car since this happend, it kinda rumbles a little, instead of just cutting off smooth and straight like it used to..
ive been trying to find the specs for doing a valve adjustment on this engine(its a k20z1, right??) but i even called acura and kept getting voicemails..
i want to do it myself, ive done a valve lash on a b18b a few time so im pretty familar with the procedur, but i dont know which arm of the feeler gauge to use(ie. .024mm?), and im pretty sure you start with piston #1, then 3, 4, 2, cranking the engine 90 degress after each adjustment?
HELP PLEASE!!:dontknow:
