clogged oil passages, low oil pressure, and any number of electrical gremlins

x2 most common issue is low oil pressure
another issue I've found
? Is the ecu chipped...I've loaded a base map before and came to find out vtec was told in engage and disengage at the same Rpm...check for that or something similar...hopefully tuner would have caught something like that though
