For the vtec problem, check the oil level and the vtec oil screen. There are other things to check, but I would start with these.

As for the other problem, I don't know.

There is a screen that filters the oil enthering the vtec pressure switch and solenoid, if that screen gets clogged problems like your describing can occur.
