Default h22a vtech problem

ok i have a h22a, the v-tech wire is connected, tripple check and it connected. The v-tech suppose to kick in at 5.5 but it doesn't pull at all don't know what is going on. I'm running on a p13, so if anyone can help me figure this out it would be great. O and i have a skunk 2 IM and the IAB is taken off.

Change the channel. When mine gets all FUZZY that works sometimes.

Or were you not talking about your phone? I am not sure.

have you checked your oil?

have you taken the VTEC solenoid off and cleaned the screen?

Do you have any CEL's?


and for future reference our motors have VTEC.

Vtech is a phone company.

read the Faq. There is a plethora of information for beginners.

First...There is a PROBLEM WITH YOUR VTECH..

THERE"S an "H" in it which will mess up your engine.

REMOVE YOUR VALVE COVER AND LOOK AT THE CAMS...THERE YOU WILL FIND THE "H" LIKE ROD.

REMOVE THIS "H" AND YOUR VARIABLE TIMING ELECTORNIC CAMSHAFT "Lift Control" WILL WOULD much better.

Seriously, Check the Vtec "SILLY NOID"

Did it take 3 bottles to get the oil level back to full? Or did you just decide to dump 3 extra quarts of oil in there? If so, overfilling your motor with oil is just as bad as not having enough oil.

But if it took 3 quarts to get back to full, then I'm surprised your motor is still running!

vtec kicking now, everything is good, thanks for all the help. I guess it was oil pressure. 3 bottle to get it back to norma.l never really drove the car cause i just bought it from my cousin and he never drove it either due to some issue.

i would address that "issue" and by the way All H22's take 5.1 quarts of oil instead of "3bottle make vtec work yo".
