Ok well i recently got my h22 civic running and i was throwing a code 7 which is the tps. Today i got the tps figured out and it is not throwing it anymore. However now i am throwing a

12-EGR
22-vtec pressure switch

The car feels kinda sluggish. When vtec kicks in it feels good throughout 6000 but just won't go after that. The rev limiter hits at various places, sometimes it will hit about 6500 and somtimes about 7000 but feels like it doesn't want to go at those rpms. thanks in advance for any help

Are you sure vtec is kicking in?

Clean the egr, make sure you have sufficient oil pressure.

That's most likely your secondary butterflies opening.

Vtec should not engage if you're throwing a cel.

I am pretty sure its vtec.......i have a prelude si with an h23 and it definetaly doesn't sound like my h22....what i do think it might be is when my car is cold vtec won't kick in...do you think that would throw the code?

I will be cleaning my egr and hopefully that will clear the code....I just need to go get some carb cleaner

 

ok...i just cleaned out my egr and reset the ecu....it cleared the egr code and threw a code 23 which is the knock sensor. I think i might have read the codes wrong before. Anyways do i jus need to get a new knock sensor?
