Who informed you of this stupidity?

There is no such thing as VTEC fluid. Its the motor oil that goes to the vtec solenoid.

What motor are you running? If a cel is on then thats where you need to start.

sure i wanna see a video of u tryin to blow it up!! there is no vtec fluid, it runs off your engine oil!! so check your oil , and as stated do a oil change, and get that cel fixed!!! if it still doesnt engage check your soleniod.
