Valve Clearance Specs 2006 Civic LX
 
Does anybody have the valve clearance specifications for 2006 Civic LX 1.8L Engine? There is nothing posted on the under hood decal, and nothing in the owners manual.
Thanks for your time.

From the 06 shop manual
Cylinder Head Valve Clearance Adjustment

Adjust the valves only when the cylinder head temperature is less than 38 °C (100 °F).
Remove the cylinder head cover.

Set the No. 1 piston at top dead center (TDC). The ‘‘UP'' mark (A) on the camshaft sprocket should be at the top, and the TDC grooves (B) on the camshaft sprocket should line up with the top edge of the head.

Select the correct thickness feeler gauge for the valves you're going to check.

Valve Clearance
Intake: 0.20±0.02 mm (0.008±0.0008 in.)
Exhaust: 0.25±0.02 mm (0.010±0.0008 in.)

After adjustment tighten the locknut.
Specified Torque
7 x 0.75 mm
14 N·m (1.4 kgf·m, 10 lbf·ft)

Recheck the valve clearance. Repeat the adjustment if necessary.

Rotate the crankshaft clockwise. Align the No. 3 piston TDC groove (A) on the camshaft sprocket with the top edge of the head.

Check, and if necessary, adjust the valve clearance on No. 3 cylinder.

Rotate the crankshaft clockwise. Align the No. 4 piston TDC groove (A) on the camshaft sprocket with the top edge of the head.

Check, and if necessary, adjust the valve clearance on No. 4 cylinder.

Rotate the crankshaft clockwise. Align the No. 2 piston TDC groove (A) on the camshaft sprocket with the top edge of the head.

Check, and if necessary, adjust the valve clearance on No. 2 cylinder.

Install the cylinder head cover.
