i just found a washer on the floor where the car was when we were working on it. it's about the size of a dime. any idea where it would come from relating to the slave/clutch assembly and the car starting problem?
i made sure the greased ball was seated properly when i put it back together.

Dude, have you replaced the battery yet or not? I would do that first if it doesn't crank. If it doesn't work, then you have a problem with your electrical system. Maybe a bad ground.

we tried jumping and replacing the batt. no effect. then changed the starter. no effect. the honda people have no idea what is going on. so like i said, any idea where a little washer might come from anywhere in the slave area?

The purpose was to protect the differential from heavy beatings and clutch dumps.
04 has a stronger diff so the need for the slave is mute.

I would warn you guys that are considering removal of the delay valve, that doing so can easily void your warranty. If you go in for driveline repair, expect the dealership to be checking to see if you have the valve in place. If it's gone, get out your checkbook.
I hate clutch delay valves (had 'em on the BMW's too), and fully expect the dealership to replace a prematurely-worn clutch under warranty. Had a clutch replaced for free at 18K miles on my last 330i.
Once the car is out of warranty, naturally, the first thing to come out is that little eff'ing valve...

Just completed this mod. Thanks for the great write up. Pedal is still a little low. I need to work it a bit to get it back where it was. Engagement is great though.
May I suggest that the need fore the banjo bolt gaskets be added to the required materials? Honda stocks them if you want to pay $3 each, or you can go aftermarket. I don't recommend reusing brake or clutch bolt seals since they do see a little pressure and a leak will not be a good thing.

You'll only notice the delay on a max effort shift. When it happens, there will be a definite drag down of the engine as the clutch engages after a speed shift. I've only felt it a couple of times on my '04. Most of the time, I'm not pushing the car enough for it to be of any significance. If you're not feeling it on your car, I wouldn't worry about it.
Drive Safe,
Steve R.
