2009 Fit Sport 1.5L Valve Adjustment

Hello there! New guy here asking for some help. Does anyone have any type of reference that gives all the specs and details for DIY valve clearance adjustment? Any help would be appreciated, I can’t seem to find much unfortunately.

There’s a valve adjustment tool that has a built in flathead and 10mm socket that will make the job a thousand times easier. It’s $20 on eBay or Amazon and I’d highly recommend buying one before hand

for the valve lash “drag” think about the resistance of pulling tape from a tape dispenser. That’s about as much tension you want with your feeler gauge.
