    I have a 92 integra 1.7 vtec. My manual shows valve clearance for both
    intake and exhaust at .006 . A mechanic at a import shop told me .007
    intake .008 exhaust. who has the right answer and do I adjust hot or
    cold

    Have you ever done the GSR valve adjustment?
    It takes even a skilled mechanic over a hour.
    Engine must be cool.

    Which manual do you have? The factory service manual specs: Inlet
    ..006--.007 and Exhaust .007--.008 if you really insist on using inches.
    It's really Inlet .15--.19 and Exhaust .17--.21 in mm and they should be
    done cold, i.e. temp <100F or <38C. The locknuts should be torqued to
    14lb/ft

    Usually the information is "pasted" on the inside of the hood. Check to see
    if your information is just above your head! :) wolf
