VTEC Rocker Arm Test
  1. With the specified air pressure applied, move the secondary rocker arm (A) for the No. 1 cylinder. The mid rocker arm (B), primary rocker arm (C), and secondary rocker arm should move together.
    • If the mid and primary rocker arms do not move together with the secondary rocker arm, remove the mid, primary, and secondary rocker arms as an assembly, and check that the pistons in the rocker arms move smoothly. If any rocker arm needs replacing, replace the mid, primary, and secondary rocker arms as an assembly, then retest.
  1. Repeat Step 12 on the remaining secondary rocker arms with each piston at TDC. When all the secondary rocker arms pass the test, go to Step 14 .
  1. Remove the air supply, the air joint adapter, the VTEC air adapters, and the VTEC air stopper.
  1. Tighten the camshaft holder mounting bolts to 22 N·m (2.2 kgf·m, 16 lbf·ft).
  1. Tighten the sealing bolt to 10 N·m (1.0 kgf·m, 7.4 lbf·ft).
