Misinformation, not all CELs put the ECU in limp mode. Knock sensor for one does not, maybe the problem is your driving. Do you know how many miles you are getting per tank or per gallon or are you just guessing that it is running rich?

You have a LS/VTEC and you're still spelling it VTECH? I know I may seem like an ***, but WTF?
