Re: 99CcordMTF23's H22-Swap thread! Small Update, 6/28/12, pics pg6! RUNNING!
unfortunately my auto tensioner took a **** and i can turn the T-belt 90* on the tight spot (Doubt 4k miles on a new t-belt would stretch it that much) and ill be replacing it with the Bisimoto manual tensioner for $100 buck when i change the oil here next pay check with some Mobil1 and getting Gates belts.
Small Update!
As far as my wierd bogging and stuff I just replaced the H22 egr valve with the F23 egr and Plugged it on in, merely for astetics since my p28 doesnt have the egr anyway... Also cleaned up the wiring. Popped the Valve cover to re seal the gaskets and i re-check my valve clearances... They were in spec when i first got the motor, And when i checked the intake side, Only one Intake valve was at .007, all the rest were soo tight i couldnt get a .001" in there... I mean damm. Set valves at .007 on intake and .008 on exhaust (On the loose side, i prefer it that way). Needless to say it runs amazingly well, and i dropped fuel pressure down to 45psi, and i netted 37mpg @ 70 with a/c (bout 2.5k rpms) and abour 32 in the city driving like an old lady on our 400 mile trip. Got about 4k miles on it and Im glad i did the swap. its soo much better than the initial driving, and Despite a severly slipping stock replacement clutch, its the quickest accord in my town... (well, 4cyl...) I love the DOHC!!!! Seriously guys, trust me, it's easier than i make it seem...
Soon to get a K20 IM adapter and a Golden eagle IM and 75mm TB, along with a light flywheel, and a good clutch, AEM ems, then BOOOOOOoooooooosssst.....
Hey did you do the auto to manual tensioner conversion on your h22?
