Normal
It's Fixed!!!Thanks for the advice from everyone. It was very helpful. The Heli-Coil tool worked and WITHOUT having to pull the engine. My mechanic also poured about 3 quarts of chemical inton the cylinder to flush any excess shavings. He said the exhaust valve on that cylinder must have been open because he did not pull 3 quarts back out- an added bonus in getting most of the shavings out. What was learned... I bought this car used so it is hard to know its full history. I even had a full inspection from Mile High Acura in Denver. My mechanic checked the remaining spark plugs and discovered that not a single plug was torqued correctly! Every one under-torqued. That will not happen again on my cars.Well my NSX is back to normal and running great!JT
