> [@UltimateH22aSwapGuide](#): > > ``` > First of all, what is an autotensioner, and why would you want to fix it? Basically this is what keeps the tension on your timing belt and keeps it from jumping a tooth or two and wrecking your valve train - in other words, you don't want this thing to fail. However, the H22 comes with a very poorly designed autotensioner that has been known to fail over and over. > > To protect your investment, you should consider this fix. The other up side, is that you won't have to purchase a special tool to change the timing belt, as the autotensioner that comes tock requires a special tool and the manual one that you will be replacing it with, does not. > > ``` I’m selling the fix because I don’t have the money to buy an H22a right now and prolly won’t for a long time. This would be PERFECT for someone who’s looking at buying BluBalls H22a Civic or has a JDM H22a in general. I’m looking to get roughly $150 for it, since I paid a little more than that for the fix. All parts are Genuine Honda parts and ordered directly through a Honda Dealership. There are 11 parts total. ---
