    Now I wonder why they would do that!! As for needing a spring compressor tool, looks like even their V-Tech engine has the same adjusting arrangements... Rog.

    1.4se cvt-7 Jazz service

    I agree the valve clearances may be fine, but, until I can check I dont know, Honda actually carry out this check every 25,000mls and I presume they know what they are doing, cant see them checking unless needed. What I need is the spec for the gap, anyone help?
