2000 HONDA CIVIC Valve

Valve Guides
Replacement (cont'd)
Working from the camshaft side, use the driver andan air hammer to drive the guide about 2 mm (0.1 in)towards the combustion chamber. This will knock offsome of the carbon and make removal easier.
CAUTION:
. Always wear satety goggles or a face shield when
driving valve guides.
. Hold the air hammer directly in line with thevalve guide to prevent damaging the driver.
Turn the head over, and drive the guide out towardthe camshaft side of the head.

It a valve guide still won't move, drill it out with a8 mm {5/16 in) bit, then try again.
CAUTION: Drill guides only in extreme cases; you
could damage the cylinder head it the guide breaks.
6. Remove the new guides from the freezer, one at atime, as you need them.

I7. Apply a thin coat of clean engine oil to the outsideof the new valve guide. Install the guide from thecamshaft side of the head; use the special tool todrive the guide in to the specified insralled height. lfyou have all 16 guides to do, you may have to reheat
the head.

NOTE: For new valve guides only.
1. Coat both the reamer and valve guide with cufting
orl.
2. Rotate the reamer clockwise the full length of the
valve guide bore.
3. Continue to rotate the reamer clockwise while
removing it from the bore.
4. Thoroughly wash the guide in detergent and water
to remove any cutting residue.
5. Check the clearance with a valve (see page 6-391.

Lightly tap the end of each valve stem two or three
times with a plastic mallet to ensure proper seating
of the valve and valve keepers.

Installation
CAUTION:
. Make sure that all tockers are in alignment with their
valvgs when torquing the rocket assembly bolts,. Valve locknuls should be loosened and adiusting
screws backed off bofore installation.
. To prevont tho rocker arm a$smbly from coming
apad, l6av€ the camshaft holder bohs in the holdeB.
1. After wiping down the camshaft, camshaft seal andjournals in the cylinder head, lubricate both sur-
faces and install the camshaft.
2. Clean and install the oil control orifice with a new
O-ring.
CAMSHAFT SEALSeal housing surface should be dry.Apply a light coat of oil to camshaftand inner lip of seal.
3. Turn the camshaft until its keyway is facing up (No.
piston TDC).

4. Apply liquid gasket (Part No. 08718 - 0001 or 08718 -
0003) to the head mating surfaces of the No. 1 and
No.5 camshaft holders.- Apply liquid gasket to the shaded areas
Set the rocker arm assemblY in place and loosely
installthe bolts.- Make sure that the rocker arms are properly posi-
tioned on the valve stems.
Tighten each bolt two turns at a time in the sequence
shown below to ensure that the rockers do not bind
on the valves.

NOTE:
. Always use a new head gasket.
. Cylinder head and cylinder block surface must be
clean.
. "UP" mark on the camshaft pulley should be at the top
. Turn the crankshaft so the No. 1 piston is at TDC (see
page 6-20).
. Clean the oil control orifice before installing.
a Do not use the upper cover and lower cover to store
removeo rlems.
Clean the upper cover and lower cover before instal-
taUon.

NOTE:
. We recommend using a beam-type torque

be sure to tighten slowly and not to overtighten.
. If a bolt makesany noisewhileyou aretorquing it,
loosen the bolt, and retighten it from the 1st step,

Install the intake manifold and tighten the nuts in a
crisscross pattern in two or three steps, beginning
with the inner nuts (see pages 9-2 thru 9-4).
. Always use a new intake manifold gasket.
Install the exhaust manifold and tighten the nuts in
a crisscross pattern in two or three steps, beginning
with the inner nut {see pages 9-6 and g-7).
. Always use a new exhaust manifold gasket.
Install the exhaust manifold bracket. lnstall the
exhaust pipe A and the bracket, then install the cover.

Adjust the valve clearance (see page el2),
Install the head cover gasket in the groove of the
cylinder head cover, Seat the recesses for the
camshaft first, then work it into the groove around
the outside edges.
NOTE:
. Before installing the head cover gasket, thor-
oughly clean the seal and the groove.
. When installing, make sure the head cover gas-
ket is seated securely in the corners of the
recesses wath no gap.

Apply liquid gasket to the head cover gasket at the
four corners of the recesses.
NOTE:
. Use liquid gasket, Pan No. 08718 - 0001 or 08718- 0003.
. Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry
before applying liquid gasket.
. Do not install the parts if five minutes or more
have elapsed since applying liquid gasket.
Instead, reapply liquid gasket after removing old
residue.
. After assembly, wait at least 30 minutes before
filling the engine with oil.
