Valve adjustment specs
Wanting to confirm the valve adjustment specs for my 2012 Honda Civic LX. For some reason there is no sticker under the hood with this information.

Thanks!

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Just to clarify for OP, cold spec (i.e. head temp <100F), right? I'm assuming it is, since the 7thgen spec is for cold.

edit: nevermind the edit. I can't read.

Re: Valve adjustment specs
cool beans. Just wanted to make sure. For a while, Crower (aftermarket, I know) said the valve clearance while installing their cams was done hot, until I emailed them to verify. They quickly retracted the hot instruction.
