+Nicholas Mercado The firing order is 1-3-4-2. Cylinder 1 is the post on
the cap marked A1. The distributor rotor rotates clockwise with the
distributor shaft pointing at you. So number the distributor cap in a
clockwise direction with the firing order.
On the engine cylinder 1 is the one closest to the crank pulley since so
you count from right to left 4-3-2-1.
Thanks for the video! I completed this process and botched one of the plug
seal, lil bit of oil in there. I’m gonna replace it but will I have to
replace the valve cover seal also since it’s been pressed?
any suggestions for when those sparkplug seals are stuck? I’ve gotten mine
out in pieces… but they’re quite bad and there’s a lot left in there.
While doing this the hose that you removed after the pvc broke. What do I
do about this?
My 97 Honda Accord gives off a burnt oil type smell after driving for a
while when I turn it off. Is a faulty Valve Cover Gasket attributing to
this smell?
Thank you! Love my Honda and enjoy taking care of it.
Excellent video helped me solve my problem. Well done.
Busted my nose twice trying to take them gasket rings off with that $10
tool from AutoZone I purchased, them shits were not as easy for me to pop
off…LoL Great video though thanks it helped me save $150 for someone else
to do it for me…
so you don’t need to use any sealent for the Spark plug gaskets because I
used some and my gaskets, almost all of them failed on me. when I removed
my old ones the first time they had a tiny bit of sealent on them. but do
you even have to use it?
Your video is very helpful. Thanks you for making it possible for me to
learn and do it myself.
Will be using this method on a 95 tomorrow
Great video made the job so much easier, saved me hundreds of dollars to do
it myself.
Hello. what is the spark plug firing order for a 1994 Honda accord. Do I
start where it states A1.
Great video, me and my 2001 Accord thank you :)
Great video dude, I just did my valve cover gasket and when I put it on the
gaskets for the plug wires were overlapping the spark plug tube. Is there
any problems that I can have with them like that?
whats that your spraying on the rag
Also thank you for the video it had everything I needed to know except the
bolt grommet replacement but found it while reading through the comments.
Thank you is that process gonna need oil drained
Thanks for the repply it only happing at the sartup.
bushu,
thank you for all your excellent videos. I am doing my valve cover and have
some glued on spark plug tube seals. I’m making turtles progress with a
heat gun/razor/small picks. any suggestions?
also wondering, how would one go about replacing the bolt seals that come
with the gasket set? I don’t see how you would get either end of the bolt
thru the little gaskets.
also I felt much more confident taking the valve cover bolts off, and I did
not go the impact/pb blast route, just a 3/8 ratchet, no problem. I have a
1/4 torque wrench that I will use to replace the bolts to 86 INCH lbs.
THANKS!
So I striped one of the front bolt holes any suggestions on how to fix
this? Also, it’s striped but is holding for now I tried removing it with my
hand but can’t, will this be enough to prevent a leak?
Many Thanks This video is a life saver.
We were given a 96 honda accord wagon (2.2litre) with 225k miles on it. It
ran for 27 days before smoking profusely and misfire on cylinder 1 and 2.
(checked codes with the jumper and looked up online). Checked the plugs to
find 3 of 4 tubes filled with oil and the 4th visibly leaking. I am
heading out now with this downloaded for reference as I go to replace
everything, including the spark plugs and the wires (and oil and filter
while we are at it.)
Colder than a well digger’s bum out there so I might have a bit of a time
but at least I have a decent reference.
Thanks again.
I asked a question a month ago about have oil or some fluid in spark plug
if I take off top will fluid come out while trying to change seals and can
I use a sealent instead of changing seal?
Hello I have a Honda Accord DX 2001 with 113000 miles and at least I put
quater of oil in week for 1000 miles of drive and sometime in the morning
startup it blows a blue smoke for about 20s after that runs fine without
smoke allday can it be the valve cover gasket or something else if so can
you give a solution thank you.
How much would a normal mechanic charge for this kinda of work. Just bought
a acura cl 2.2 and it bleeds a little oil where this meachnic is work at
Where can I get the screw on 07:45 ?
have you ever broken a valve cover bolt on one of these old accords while
removing it? I’m trying to determine whether I should pb blast and impact
wrench the bolts out instead of using a ratchet, apparently impacts cause
less direct turning force than using a ratchet/breaker bar and are hence
less likely to break a stubborn bolt. Of course an impact to drive the bolt
in again would be sheer recklessness. thank you.
Thanks man, ur vids help me out a lot…
great videos. Do you have any videos for timing belt/water pump
replacement on 94-97 honda accord. Thanks
First off you need to learn your honda engine familys… the model and
submodel of Honda should not be used to determine the engine inside but the
engine its self. Whats in one ex , lx ,dx extra may not be found in the
other… just sayin but other than that , nice video man
