Hi,

I have a Honda civic 1997 1500cc. We've replaced the valve seats, had a head resurfaced and replaced the gastkets. My question is at what km reading should I have it re torque by the mechanic and the valves adjusted?

many thanks,
Erwin

Honda engines do not require retorquing of cylinder heads.

I would recommend valve adjustment after 1000 miles.
