VTEC fluid? Please.

If you don't know the answer, please don't post. There's already enough misinformation and stupidity as it is.

Save that for someone who asks if they can get a part to make VTEC hit harder or something...not someone with a legitimate question.

you might have to change your vtec solenoid I had the same problem, I changed my solenoid and the problem was fixed....... is 21 the only code your getting? also is vtec still Engaging?

...oil?

I thinkn the VAFC might have something to do with it. Did you go over everything and double check? You might have a loose connection on one of your connectors, or one could be mixed up or something.

VTEC fluid? .....oh **** is that something i can ask autozone for......or maybe honda dealer????....lol......funny **** yet...

i jus check wit a friend of mine n he told me that this happens when i connect the oil pres. so i disconnected and *proof* no more check engine(some times it still comes up but not too offten) still havent checked what its for....

vtec stills pops....now.....it didnt before....

but i feel it runin like crap so in guessin i gotta get some one to tune it.....

also i got no knock sensor.....another friend of mine showed me a way how to trick the ecu......that does work....
