The lost motion spring sits under the mid rocker arm in your K-series head, and its whole job is keeping that rocker pressed against the VTEC lobe while VTEC is disengaged. Without that pressure, the mid rocker doesn't follow the lobe cleanly, it floats and slaps, and you get valvetrain noise up top that drives you crazy trying to diagnose. This is the genuine Honda spring (14820-PNA-013) that puts the tension back where it belongs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat A Tired Lost Motion Spring Actually Does\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHere's the part worth understanding. When you're below the VTEC crossover, that middle rocker is riding the high-lift lobe but isn't doing any work, and the lost motion spring is what keeps it in contact instead of bouncing off. Over enough miles and heat cycles the spring loses tension, and once it does, the rocker starts chattering against the lobe. That's the tick a lot of K owners chase for weeks, blaming the injectors, the chain, or the valve lash, when it's actually a worn set of these. On a high-revving or built motor the stakes go up, because a weak spring means less control over a rocker that's getting whipped around a lot harder than Honda planned for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSold Individually, But Buy Eight\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese are sold one at a time, which is handy if you're replacing a single one, but let's be practical. Your engine uses eight of them, and they've all lived the exact same life under the exact same heat. If one has gone soft, the other seven aren't far behind. Getting into the head is the expensive part of this job, not the springs, so replacing all eight while you're in there is the move. Order one if you genuinely just need one, but order eight if you want to fix the problem instead of postponing most of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo It While The Head Is Apart\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGetting at these means pulling the valve cover and the rocker assembly, so this is a job you want to knock out alongside other work rather than on its own. If you're already in there doing a valve adjustment, a head gasket, cam swap, or any valvetrain refresh, fresh lost motion springs are cheap insurance and they take almost no extra time once everything's open. Same goes if you're building a motor that's going to see real rpm. Start it with springs you trust rather than reusing whatever came out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy Genuine Honda Matters Here\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a small spring living in a demanding spot, taking a beating every single revolution the engine turns. The tension spec has to be right or it doesn't do its job, and it has to hold that spec for years of heat cycling. This is the exact Honda part, so you know it's correct rather than hoping a generic equivalent holds up. Given how much work it takes to reach these, using the real part is the only version of this job that makes sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFits Your K-Series\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis spring fits DOHC i-VTEC K-series engines including the K20A2, K20Z1, K20Z3, K24A2, K24Z2, K24Z3, and K24Z7:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n    \u003cthead\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n            \u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eMake\u003c\/th\u003e\n            \u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n            \u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eYears\u003c\/th\u003e\n        \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003c\/thead\u003e\n    \u003ctbody\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAcura\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eILX\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2013-2015\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAcura\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRSX Type-S\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2002-2006\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAcura\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTSX\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2004-2014\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHonda\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAccord (K24)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2008-2012\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHonda\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCivic Si\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2006-2015\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHonda\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCR-V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2010-2014\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHonda\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCrosstour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2012-2015\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt also covers other applications running these engines, including swaps.
