valve adjustment 2001 CR-V
I am going to adjust the valve clearance on both of my 01 CR-V's, before I
remove the Valve cover there is another item that has to be removed I
beleive its called the intake plentium.
Before I remove(plentium) it by removeing the 4 fasteners, does anyone know
if there is a gasket where the plentium meets the intake manifold. I am
concerend that if there is a gasket, it will tear.
I don't think that the owners manual mentions checking valve clearance on
the 01 models, as the in previous models, I have heard its a good idea to
check the clearance.
I have a Haynes manual but it only covers 00 models and there is no mention
of the plentium when removeing the valve cover.
thanks

You should visit the local Honda dealership and talk to the person at the
parts counter. Ask him to show you the diagram related to the plentium.
The diagram should clearly show whether or not there is a gasket and the
part number of the gasket. If there is a gasket in that location, I advise
you to buy a new one. It's a great idea to replace any gaskets instead of
making use of making use of the old gaskets. Old gaskets are more likely
to develop leaks than new gaskets.

Hey, "Jason"...what is a plentium?
Anyhoo, for the OP, look it up yourself at Majestic.

A "plenum" is a chamber to connect a duct to a manifold. My old Nissan had
one between the throttle body and the intake manifold. What a hassle! It had
to be removed to change the plugs, and it had wiring bundles supported on it
and various vacuum and cooling lines.

Since that chamber is meant to be removed on occasion, the gaskets are
surely some kind of synthetic rubber or nylon, like inside the air
filter box. They will be reusable. Just slip it off and do your thing....

P.S. When you do the adjustments, make sure to set them to the loose
side of the spec, since they tend to tighten on the first generation
CR-v. Wouldn't hurt to write a note in your owner's manual that says:
Every 30,000 miles / 50,000 Km. Same interval for rear differential
fluid, formerly called CVT Fluid, now called Dual Pump Fluid.
