Not to sure man. I personally thing it's more serious then just getting a valve adjustment.

Get valve adjustment first, I used to have valve slap a little on my bb5, didn't even worry me man. Tbh h22s are so cheap anyway, why not just drive it until it blows, do a swap, ez

Thanks Renzo. I'll get the adjustment as soon as I can and see what happens.

H224A has LMA installed which means they have a Valve spring that is different than the previous models which can be renewed as it is with previous.

Previous models can be upgraded with current LMA'S

I have adjusted my 99 Honda Prelude SH several times to the min spec.

I always hit the limits and had Valve bounce with the limit kicking in.

I now have adjusted them to the largest gap advised and it sounds like a diesel truck! BUT!

I do not hit the limit and go over and get better high range performance.

If you want no ticking use the minimum limit if you want performance use the maximum and sound like a diesel truck!

I don't like the noise but LUV the performance!

Good Luck from Vancouver, Canada!
