i dont know im just think maybe possibly out of the blue i know but just maybe it might have something to do with the codes your throwing you think about that?? Go adjust your distributor with your cam gears until it is TDC and check your crankshaft pulley that just maybe might help and im pretty sure replacing your o2 might help some too if not in the VTEC area just maybe the gas mileage area. Cmon now dude think if your throwing codes fix em and then if VTEC's not working than you have a legitimate issue.

cant offer much help in this area, so this is a free bump. If you havent looked up how to fix that code you are throwing i would suggest that. Do the adjustments and everything. SOrry i cant be any help.

i dont know if anyone said where that TDC sensor is, but if i remember right that is in your distributor. My friend had a SI civic and that code came on. he had to replace his whole distributor, because you cant just buy that sensor. COuld be wrong, but that is what fixed his car. As for the O2 sensor, replace it, or try checking the connection. NOt sure and not 100% sure if im right anyways. good luck
