dom93hatch,

I believe this posting talks about adjusting the valves. https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...d.php?t=219739

I do not recall what the posting says but I think you need a 10mm box end wrench that is bent so it will reach down onto the nut that is on top of the spring. You will also need a bent feeler guage and a flat screwdriver.

Someone at Karen Radley Acura in Baley Crossroads, Virginia, told me a few weeks ago that he did NOT recommend adjusting the valves unless they are making noise.

Mine has 218,000 miles and I have not adjusted mine.
