I have heard that there is an apparent problem associated with the auto-tensioner thats fitted to all H22A's and only a Honda dealerships can fix/recall the problem.

I have read info from another website claming that the only way around this
problem is to use a manual-tensioner from the Accord F22 series engine's.

Has anyone encountered an auto-tensioner problem with there there H22A?

I would like to hear all opinions from others on this topic before I isntall my
engine and not encounter this problem and possilbly damage my engine !

replace it when you change the timming belt and it will last another 100000kms

I have been told to use a F22 Accord manual tensioner, Is this correct?
What modifications need to be done for the auto-to-manual conversion?
Any info/pic's on the process would be much appreicated......:thumbsup:
