Default LS/VTEC question??????

i just rebuilt my block and theres a problem, well there was a lot of problem but i cut it down to just a few. well this is what happen, when the car starts it idles fine at 800 to 900 rpm. but what i dont understand is that when i shut it down and open the valve cover how come it start to smoke up. it doesnt smoke a lot but just a little. i try taking the car out for a drive to see how it performs but it laggs and wont go anywhere. i gives me a code of 22 (which is the oil pressure sensor) i check that it was cool. what whould you guys perferr me doing??? im confuse and i invest a lot of money into this block. please help???

Not sure which ecu you are running but codes 21 and 22 are usually related to the VTEC solenoid and the VTEC oil pressure sensor. Can't remember which is which right now. Are you sure the wiring is correct and that the sensor is good?

22 is the vtec oil pressure code, check your vtec oil pressure sensor.. the car will lag if the engine is to cold or the vtec oil pressure is to low.
