CEL - Random Misfire Keeps coming back
So I picked up this car a month ago.
The same week I picked it up from the dealership the CEL comes on. I bring it back in and they told me the motor flooded with fuel...
So they cleared it and i'm off on my way. A week later it comes back on and I take it to my buddy to pull the code. He pulls misfires and random misfire codes. Pulled the plugs and they were toast. I replaced them with oem and gapped them to correct specs.
Everything is good for 2 weeks. CEL comes on again
I pulled the plugs and they look perfectly fine. Pulled the code again and same codes.
So Honda reccomends a valve adjustment. What else could it be and what else are common issues I could look at while i'm at it.
Thanks for the help

have a look at your motor mounts.... I had a similar problem but i would get a cam sensor intermittant malfunction that = limp mode..
The worn mount was allowing metal to metal contact, causing the engine to vibrate on the chassis, wreaking havok on my sensors. have a look
