This is a video on how to do this. It is pretty simple.
Like in the video, the light will not come on for clogged port on your car. That is why I put the suggestion to check vacuum routing. Do you have the manual that I suggested you download?
The one thing I would do is reset the ECU by pulling the 7.5 amp backup/radio fuse in the engine bay fuse box for a minute. Drive around until the check engine light reappears. Recheck codes. The codes should repeat, so double check the codes.

I watched that video. It seems pretty simple, and I think that I will attempt the job. What does the silicone paste do exactly? Is it necessary because if so then I'm gonna have to go buy a can of it? Also what kind of cleaner would you reecomend using?

The silicone lubricates the o-rings so you don't pinch/tear them when you go to reinstall the fuel rail. The honda dealership will have the o-rings. Some parts stores may sell them. You will have to check out their web sites.

Yes the dealer is a place to check. There are many people that can do this without replacing the o-rings. My suggestion was only my personal opinion....I've seen posts where it went wrong.

In that case, I will go get the silicone and the o-rings in the next couple days so I can clean the EGR ports this weekend. I'm sure I'll have a question or two to ask between now and then. Thanks for everyone's help so far. Wich me luck! haha
