Default Valve Adjustment

Ok I have a 2000 S2K with 30000 miles. The motor makes a ticking noise that I think could be solved by a valve adjustment. Pretty sure it is not the TCT. Hey if it is not the valves I would be good to know in the future. Anyway I am not really 100% sure how to do this and I don

I'm just a small hop over the Indiana border, and if you brought your car out here, I'd be more than willing to teach you how to do this.

I've done this on a B-series Honda engine, I wonder if it's much different on an F20/F22? If not much different, I would say it is a pretty easy DIY. (It doesn't look much different from the DIY thread). If I lived closer to you guys I'd be willing to lend a hand on something like this.

When I did this on my CRX at ~100k miles, I wished I hadn't bothered because everything turned out to be up to spec., and I saw no gains after doing the work.

I can bring the tools to the Valpo meet, or if anyone wants to host a tech day (I live in an apartment, so it's out of the question) I'd be more than willing to share tools and teach a group of people how to do this.

That would be great! But I also live in an apartment in West Lafayette but I think I can host a tech day in Indianapolis. I think it will be too far for many of us though. I hope there is someone who can host this near where Ness2000 lives. When is the Valpo meet?
