Hey everyone,

I'm looking for a shop or someone who does valve adjustments. They are starting to make a little noise and I'm sure its never been performed before. I changed the oil this morning and switched from a 5w-30 to a 10w-30 just to see if that would help. It quieted down a little ,but I figure better safe then sorry. I have a 89 prelude si with the B20a5 I believe. I checked the shop stickies but wanted some personal recommendations. I would also like the chance to watch how its done, so that next time I'll be able to do it myself. If anyone has any suggestions let me know.



...if you don't work in a shop and would like to make some extra money on the side that's cool.... you just have to have a reference or be well known around here or something. Just so I can know that you know what you are doing


Thanks in advance everyone

 

How about checking the fucking god damn sticky at the top of this section called Official Shop list.

 

How about reading the entire post. I said I did check the sticky. I said I was looking for personal recommendations. Its not difficult to figure out.....

reading IS fundamental.....

Have a great day

 

Nice edit. Why was it after my post?

 

whatever man, I edited earlier to correct punctuation and tense. I apologize for proof reading

I'm not here to win an argument I'm just looking for advice. But, I thank you for your comment and I will be sure to make my posts clearer in the future.

Thanks for your help.

 

I'm not either. Some of us are tired of the same questions about whats a good shop. That list was compiled for a reason. Better yet do a search. There are a few threads even in this very section that talk about who has a reputable shop. Search button is your friend.

 

I totally understand your point. I did search and look at the sticky. And I do understand that you guys do get sick of newbs coming in and being utter retards...especially lately. I've been looking through the old threads since 8 this morning. Looking for anything that could help me. I truly didn't see anything.

If there is something there and I missed it, then I would like to apologize in advance for wasting everyone's time.

I will look else where for help.

but fyi...... all of us newbs are NOT retards and do not deserve to be treated with hostility.

 

You haven't seen hostility.

Here is a thread that has some info on what shop to avoid and they recommend others

Another in the vendor reviews w/ similarities

That took me under 45 seconds.

 

You can either check out the shop list and get some price quotes, or I know a guy who does great work and is a tech for Mazda. I could ask him how much he would charge if you would like me to.
