@axjohn5 жыл бұрын
Jose yes I ran a couple of bottles of Redline Fuel Injector Cleaners in two consecutive tanks of gas. I couldn’t get the bolts loose on the EGR valve do I haven’t cleaned it or checked it yet. But I just left my indy Honda Acura repair shop-they loosened them hand tight for me! I’ll remove the valve and clean it after the engine cools down later tonight. I cleaned the EGR holes at the top side of engine and I think I loosened a piece of carbon that has stuck the EGR valve open which I’ve read online can cause a lean signal to the computer due to too much O2 and then computer adds more fuel to compensates, hence my lean code and running rich codes and misfires upon cold startup. That’s my guess. Will update.

My customers issue was a bad coil, replaced, and a month later the new coil went bad which was, fortunately covered, since she knew them and was a great talker. Further, the valve-pan cover gasket was leaking oil into the spark plug area and shorting the plugs out causing the random misfire. Finally, the (braided?)ground-wire from body to the motor was weak (copper was heat-burnt looking, brittle, and easily resolved with replacing and cleaning surfaces.

Hi Mike. I have 2013 MDX. It has s misfire in cylinder 5. My error code is P0305. 240,000 kms on it So I have done the following 1) Swapped Coil and Plug from cylinder 5 to 6, code remained P0305 2) Tried Seafoam, Redline S1 and Mystery Motor Oil treatment in fuel tank and Engine, issue did not resolve. 3) I got compression test done and it showed low compression in Cylinder 5 120 PSI vs 170 PSI in cylinder 4. Then I got an auto body shop to do all 6 comparative compression test and it came compression is only 25% in cylinder 5 and approximately 75% in cylinder 6. Cylinder 1,4,2 were 100%, cylinder 3 was 92% 4. I took it to Acura and got valve adjustment done, they said it was loose intake valve. It made engine sound alot better and I felt it got power but misfire still shows in p0305. I watched your video and have read forums. Now I am not sure what to try or do next. Any advice and help will be great. What do I try next?

Fantastic video and great explanations. Anyone fixing cars needs to understand the underlying fundamentals. New subscriber(also master/L1) grateful for some refreshers. As the diagnostician at my shop, I break the scope out on occasion, but this ticket also shines a light on some of the problems with boots on the ground and flatrate. At this point with a Honda + miss on front bank, I'd just sell the adjust. If I was wrong my shop would (yes, really!) eat the labor. If you eat 2 out 100 you still come out way ahead. For the FNGs out there, further general confirmation can be had by holding a paper to the tailpipe on a Honda and feeling for a pulse. With this particular car it likely wouldn't be absolutely conclusive given the specs, but this issue is seen across all Hondas with adjustable valves and a sure tell on the 4 cylinders. Re: Cam gears not installed on shafts correctly. This has become more common as more manufacturers use press fit cam gears instead of pins. If you get one of these in, step one is to have the owner asked if the car worked on recently. On something like a Mazda 3 installing the crank pin tool and pulling the valve cover to install the cam bar is generally going to be faster than breaking out the scope and navigating the schematic to find your pin hook ups. You are absolutely right about spark plug choice. Gotta see NGK or Denso. Can't count the number of cars I've fixed by pulling out a brand new set of +4s or splitfires and installing the OEM plug. Great video, thanks.

lol, its not like rebuilding a transmission. The tools needed… $3 feeler gauge from auto parts store $5 allen wrench set $10 socket set from harbor freight. And A small amount of brain power to remember how an intake manifold and valve covers go back on. Its not hard to do,, but it does take a while and is kinda tedious to adjust 24valves. (usually, only the 12 exaust valves). But its pretty easy to do and check them yourself for peace of mind. (without all that fancy waveform devices.) especially if you know they are due, because you haven't had them checked in like “ never” or “forever” +100k miles ago.

I understand the valve being opened sooner, but i dont see how that would cause the valve to open further... Wear causing the valve to move up into the seat/rocker/cam would not have any effect on length of travel in the other direction would it?
@cwj92026 жыл бұрын
It is the combination of valve face wear and valve seat wear which causes the valve stem to be closer to the valve actuating mechanism, in this case the rocker arm; therefore, the rocker arm contacts the valve stem sooner causing the valve to open sooner (as you already mentioned), and simultaneously the rocker arm pushes the valve stem further down, because the rocker arm mechanical travel is set, and the limitation of valve travel is controlled by the gap between the rocker arm and the top of the valve stem. You can verify this on a complete head assembly by adjusting one gap to zero and actuating that rocker arm to a specified amount of travel and comparing that measurement to, say, a gap of .012". Hope that helps.

Excellent video. The only thing that I would have liked to see was for you to have commented on the noise of the valves when the engine was running. Since the service recommendation was to do a valve adjustment if the valves were noisy, I would have liked to see you do that check. And then comment on whether you actually thought the valves were noisy. And if the valves were not noticeably noisy, wouldn't that have led you away from doing a compression waveform test using a pressure transducer?

good vid. lots of great info. Except the part about “the valve travels further”. Technically, It wouldn’t travel further* from your explanation. For it to do that. There’s only a few ways I can think of, that could cause that to happen. “the valve rod increased in length or the the cam lobe got bigger” Or “valve adjustment screw was tightening itself down further over time” or “the the valve spring has gotten weaker bouncing the valve down further past its normal travel” since the first two would have to break the laws of physics to increase in size or length… Actually,. at 200k the valve may not completely close until pressure is inside the cylinder + I’m sure they have gotten shorter or worn down from original size,)along with the valve adjustment screw). Also, if the spring was that weak it wold definitely have major issues with valve lash especially at higher rpms.(And it will really ruin your day if the valve hits the piston). But,..from your explanation. What you can say,… {{“Because exhaust ports are hotter the metal becomes softer. The valve seat is beaten down further into the head. Reducing the rocker arm clearance until it is pressed against the adjustment screw.” “Which makes a lower valve seat opening that will cause the valve open sooner and close later.” (Meaning, the valve will stay open longer….Not Further*) “And If the valves are not adjusted. Eventually the valves will not completely close causing them to become burnt”.}} And..Thats all my 2 cents. Enjoy!

Hey B Fwsk, that -17 fuel trim is pulling fuel away for some reason. Could be a leaky injector for sure...could also be other stuff. You could throw a fuel pressure gauge on there and see if the pressure bleeds off with the key off. Mike Becker, Senior Instructor

Hey Everardo, thanks! Most engines rotate clockwise, but that is not ALWAYS the case. One way to know for sure is to use the starter to slowly spin it over to verify which direction is normal.

Can this valve issue cause oil consumption ? I have a 2010 Honda Accord v6 a/t and it burns oil, about 1 quart every 1000 miles and has a p0420 catalytic code. That’s about it, i alredy took my engine apart and can’t find no major issue, I’m going to replace piston rings but i don’t know if that’s the problem

Hey Ernesto, no, I don't think the valves being tight would cause an oil burning issue. Those engines have a big issue with the piston rings gaps all lining up and causing oil burning. Sounds like you need new rings. Mike Becker Senior Instructor

Also, huge flat spot on first acceleration after warmup then restart. I assume they are unrelated. I put a new TPS in while I was in there, but flat spot is not better, and maybe worse now. Anybody have any ideas? Google is a wasteland when it comes to Odyssey hesitation on acceleration, at least for my year.

Hey S G. It's not the "speed" that we are seeing. It's the time. If the exhaust valve opens early it's cutting the compression stroke short.
