Im defiently going to adjust the valves or have a dealer do it, anyone know what they charge? Also why check the oil when its cold? I just had it changed the other night when I bought the car, the level is pretty good, and yeah seafoam is god! that shit rocks, I use it in my other car. hopefully after I get the valves done it doesnt smoke, runs great but damn when you get on the gas you can hear them valves RATTLE like crazy.....

+manual
+hondabond hightemp sealant for cover gasket
+flat tip screw driver
+wrench (10mm??)
+feeler gauges
+timing gun
+harmonic balancer holder thingy (to retighten the crank shaft bolt) - needed only if someone loosen it b4

if you have never done it before, prepare to spend 1/2-3/4 day to play around it with
