  • I show how to adjust the intake and exhaust valve clearance on a 2015-2020 Honda Fit. I walk through the steps of removing the air intake manifold, throttle body, ignition coils, valve cover, and battery to access the valves.

    Do not remove any of the trim along the windshield. Do not unbolt the throttle from the intake. Battery removal is optional, but slightly helpful. Thanks for the video! It helped me get mine done.

    For the new people watching this video , DO NOT REMOVE the plastic near the windshield , do not take apart the throttle body and do not remove the battery, just disconnect the hose and disconnect the positive wire . I did it without removing all the mentioned parts. Oh yeah and and with paper napkins or blue tape cover the holes where you can see the valves , believe me you don’t want anything going inside down there

    Thanks man for making that vid, I wanted to do that on my fit but there was no video anywhere to learn from.
    You did a superb job covering every little details that one might overlook, and also showed your mistakes so others can avoid them.
    Thanks again.
    Thanks again

    Modern cars are a pain to work on, the amount of parts you have to remove to get to the part you need to replace , crazy ,

    I wonder if Honda is still up to date with their power of dreams. Valve adjustment has been a thing of the past for most engines for about 20 years due to the use of hydraulic valve tappets, except with their prices, which are certainly up to date.

      Good question here in Australia they don’t put these engines into these cars .. they put in VVT engines .. they look the same but are not … this video caught me out actually thinking I needed to do these adjustments … the VVT are all hydraulic same year model car it’s just different engines they put in these

    I know this is an old video but I hope you see this...I'm curious where you found the valve tappet/rocker clearance specs, as you can't really find repair manuals (print Or even digital) for this car

    I have a 2019 fit slowly making ticking sounds over the years getting worse and its only during winter time it does it 40 degres or colder, once the car warms up the ticking sound goes away and it's fine, during the summer time it doesn't make the sound at all,only 55k miles on it.

    Great video ! I have 2014 Honda vezel with the same engine I believe which is LEB, and it is giving terrible mileage, replaced spark plugs etc, changed the valve clearance and it even got worse, casue i dont have the recommended valve clearance.
    Can you please confirm if 0.006-0.008 for intake & 0.010-0.012 is the recommended valve clearance for LEB engine you have by Honda ?

      On my 2015 Fit I used .006-.007 on the intake and did the "Go-No Go" fitting so I made the .006 fit but too small for the .007 to fit. I legit do not know how you would find the clearances from Honda, maybe go ask at the dealership?

    • @VincentStevenson
      @VincentStevenson  Před rokem +2

      Overtime the clearance changes as things wear down or get loose, so it’s a routine maintenance thing.

    • @brianhaygood183
      @brianhaygood183 Před rokem +2

      Most modern engines use hydraulic valve lifters that automatically adjust. Honda is one of the few that still uses manual adjusters. No idea why, other than it makes for a cheaper engine and more service dollars. Pretty annoying.
