Description: This video is (Part 4) of a series in which I completely rebuild a 2003 Honda Pilot in preparation for adding a supercharger. This episode covers electrical repairs, timing belt service, valve adjustment, and valve cover reconditioning, along with additional engine services that help it idle better.
