I am needing to replace the intake valves on my D15A2, and want to know if I absolutely need to replace the stem seals? ------------------------------------------------------------ Honda Civic DX 1.5L 4 cyl. D15A2 (EW1) 4-speed

You should never reuse valve seals ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

timing belt snapped? Valve seals are cheap. Pulling the head back off because it smokes on take off isn't cheap. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

They come with the head gasket set anyway and the machine shop will install them when they replace the valves. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

I don't see that even being possible. It would certainly be a fatal mistake. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
