I think he is referring to the msd rpm activator!!! What pill are you using?

 

is the rpm switch providing a ground or 12v?
if it is providing a ground it will not work. the spool valve needs to see 12volts.

 

did u ground the vtec ? just wondering cus i was doing my b16a swap and after it was all said and done i didnt have vtec then i realized i never grounded it lol.. i also cut my old y8 harness in half thinking i didnt need it well 2 hours later i had a y8 harness in one piece crimped together lol

you dont ground the spool valve. it is supposed to get 12volts when vtec "kicks in"

 

i have a relay that gives it 12 volts n i grounded the vtec

 

Make sure you got enough oil pressure.

 

vtec soleniod could be bad as well. happened to me before

 

VTEC owns j00!

 

the spool valve is already grounded. if you gove the spool valve a ground, it will not work. it needs 12 volts.
