tool...
 

do you need a special honda tool to adjust valve lash? Also where to get?

if i remember correctly you just need a feeler gauge, box wrench, screwdriver, and a torque wrench.

Snap on makes a special tool. It looks like a custom flat head screw driver enclosed in a 10mm box end tip. You still have to use a feeler gauge tho. I made my own. I'll take pics later......

it depends on the engine. D series you can do it with a box wrench, screw driver, and feeler gauges. However because of the valve cover design on the B series i'm pretty sure you need that special tool.

good thing im using a D on the civic lx.

just some offset wreches will to the job on b series ls
