Probably one of the best "How To" videos I've seen on youtube. Clearly detailed and comprehensive without any background noise or interference. Others have music playing in the background or seem to be unsure of themselves when narrating. To the point and right on target. Thanks.

I would think it might be best to leave the plastic covers off (they're for looks, no practical function). Thy retain the engine block heat that probably hastens the seals deterioration in the 1st place. (Oxidation rates double for every rise of 18 degree F). Plastic covers retain significant engine heat

This is a fantastic video. I’d offer two suggestions. 1. Don’t use that much RTV, less will be sufficient and you don’t want RTV getting in the head. 2. While you have the valve cover off, clean the inside well and more importantly, replace the spark plug tube seals.

This is a very descriptive video with excellent camera footage. I had a 2003 2.4 with about 400k mi., so after i changed those common oil leaks i gave the vehicle to a friend in more dire needs in central america, one of the best engines ever made. I loved driving this vehicle it was hard to let go.

This video is clear, precise, to the point and is very informative. Clear narration. The reminders such as do not over torque the bolts when reinstalling, and to place the silicone at those 4 points when replacing the cover and to secure the gasket within the grove are invaluable. Any disregarding of those points could be disastrous and can be easily over looked by the casual "Do it your self - er" GREAT VIDEO

Very helpful video. I attempted this job today. A lot of blood was shed. Nothing was as easy as it appeared in the video. I was unable to complete the vtec gasket change. One of the bolts rounded off and nothing I tried worked at getting it out. Then I lost one of the other two bolts! Smh. The job can be very risky. I almost dropped a socket down into the timing-chain cover. Having said that, cleaning the gasket surfaces can also lead to debris getting into the engine. I used brake cleaner to clean around the valve cover before removal. Once removed, I swept the debris away from the internals. Then used a scotch pad and brake cleaner to prep the gasket surface. The spark-plug grommets were brittle and difficult to remove. I had to pry them out with a screw driver.

If anyone else is doing this repair, it wouldn't hurt to put some electrical contact grease in the plugs on the VTEC solenoid before you plug them back in. That connector on top of that solenoid is notorious for getting corrosion build up and getting wet easily if any water gets near it. Especially the one nearest the driver side. I had a vehicle giving me trouble that I had bought and when i went to change the solenoid I found it had a new solenoid on it. I pulled the connector and inside it was corroded badly. I cleaned it with a piece of wire, added electrical grease and the problem was solved. I have a feeling the previous owner was having the same problem, changed the solenoid and it still did the same thing, as which point he gave up and traded it in right before I bought it at auction.

@prestonmiller6528
@prestonmiller6528 5 жыл бұрын
vitawater90 no, the vtec solenoid gasket goes bad, causing at worst a few drips of oil coming out every few miles or so. From experience, only use a Honda gasket when reassembling. You shouldn’t ever replace something just because it throws a code. You need to diagnose it first, and if you don’t know how, you should take it to an independent shop. A check engine light will never appear because of an oil leak. Very rarely do these rocker solenoids go bad, I’ve only seen one actually bad because of neglect and not changing the oil

Now, when coolant leaks there and falls on top of the old oil from the vvt solenoid leak it mixes and it gives you the impression that its oil, but it is not. Spray a full can of brake cleaner underneath the water passage and you will see the leak of coolant its not as dark.

When changing the vtec solenoid gasket, the vtec oil control valve o-ring and vtec filter gasket should be changed as well coz these 3 are known to leak if not the same time, one after another.

Is the oil pressure sensor attracted to this solenoid or what if that's leaking where's the o ring?

do you need to remove all the engine oil to do this job?

Hi, great video! I’ll probably be referencing this soon. Two questions for you, I noticed oil on one of my coils. Does this mean I should replace those round seals in the center of the head? Second, I have a terrible misfire on Cylinder 1. Coil, plugs, and injectors have all been replaced. I now have spark, fuel, and air. When I test ran the engine, I still had misfire and I pulled the injectors back out and had oil on cylinder 1 injector.. how does this happen?! Any ideas on how to diagnose/fix would be greatly appreciated!

@@rubenramirez8062 haha man, that was shit show. Misfire ended up being from the ECM. It lost ground to that cylinder. Engine got junked and put a new one in. Cars gone now cuz the IAC went bad and I got tired of dealing with the POS.
