Valve Clearance Gaps 2.3 TypeV

[tdm34]

Hi All, and a belated Happy New Year, three quick questions, i'm servicing my TypeV tomorrow, and as she's now got 60k under her wheels was going to do the VCs it doesn't look so difficult.

1, The only thing i'm not doing is the timing belt, as Honda will do it for £255 all in, now given they have to strip the cam cover off to get at things would you ask them to do the VCs at the same time
I can't imagine that it would add a great deal of cost to the job.?

2, If I do it myself what are the clearance gap values?

3, Any pointers in doing the VCs

Thanks in advance.

Regards Rob..

Rob if they are doing the belt it's probably just best to get them to do it fella. Not a hard job and shouldn't take them very long at all mate.

This was posted last year and was what I followed to do mine.

And we can beat honda's prices and quality of work hands down on that very job.
