what they are trying to say is that there is no such thing as vtec fluid. vtec is only dependent on one fluid which is your engine oil

I don't know man, it sounds to me like you need to do more research on engines before you start swapping engine parts. also, engine oil runs through the vtec solenoid which activates the "vtec"
and sorry to assume, but if you don't know what a vtec solenoid is, you should swap everything back to how you had it before you touched it.
