ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    because when you shut it off the circuit is disabled. The ecu activates the circuit for a second when you turn the key on then while cranking and probably takes a second during cold start because the sensor which is basically an on off switch has not sensed pressure yet. one pressure is seen it turns itself off.

        Okay. i guess i never noticed it before then. but i do have a tapping in the top end. but i know for a fact it's my LMA's tapping+i need a valve adjustment. i just haven't had the time to commit to it just yet. But i do have the sprint type A4 LMA's already.

            hahaha... sorry. Spring type. LMA's are the "Lost Motion Assembly" inside the head of performance VTEC engines. The keep pressure on the VTEC rockers while it's not engaged and are designed like oil-filled hydraulic lifters. They have a small spring inside them to keep at least some pressure on the rocker but when the spring starts to fail (usually in more than on at a time) they start to click loudly. The spring type A4's are just a spring with stronger metal so the tend to last much longer and don't click when they start to wear. They come in the 97-01 H22A4 engines

            So my clicking = bad hydraulic LMA's
            and sprint type = i was really fucking tired.
