LS/vtec turbo conversion..........now i gots no vtec......WTF mate
ell i converted one of the crx's we have to an ls vtec set up, and i have done a few of them in the past but this is the first one that has given me problems.
B18a bottom end
B16 head
vafc
still OBD 0
i tried running the line to the back of the head.............no vtec
i tried removing the pressure switch and running it there............no vtec
it ha s a pr3 oil pump in it too.
the vafc shows output to the solinoid, and i hear it click but its like no oil wants to go past it, i changed pressure switches twice and now am boggled...........
the soilinoid seems to be full of oil, its like its just not going past there
could the machine shop have fucked up anything in my head when they had it????
i cannot think of anything else that could be wrong, is there any other variables i have not covered???????

Re: (mrbsponge)
where are you getting the oil supply from??
i had a friend who tapped the oil source for turbo and vtec with two tee's in the sender location and the car wouldnt engage vtec because of lack of oil pressure..
just ashot in the dark cause you dont list where you oil sources are from...

same thing happened here. When I hooked the line to the golden eagle sandwich kit , vtec kicked in every single time

Problem solved thank god...............the fitting that goes into the back of the block, the 1/8th Bst had a normal hole on the outlet but about a pinhole on the inlet coming from the block so of course there was no pressure.......................im just glad i didnt buy the piece HE did, problem solved VTAK is back!
