I have read many of these forums and have not gotten an answer to my messed up problem. here it is VTEC will not activate. I have tried 2 vtec solenoids and i have checked the continuity of all the vtec wires. also checked for pins in head and they are all in correct area. i have enough oil no dents in the oil pan and still no vtec please help.

my setup
h23 block with all h22 internals including oil squirters, removed balancer shafts completely, and built head with cams.

 

motor, ecu, clean install? A little more info might help out.

 

i have a p28 chipped ecu with an obd1 jumper harness i have tried obd2 computer as well as stock obd1 gsr. what other info do you need

 

One more thing, have you checked to see if the solenoid is getting the correct amount of amps?

 

i checked the pressure switch which is at 11.77 and the vtec pressure switch wire worked fine with old setup of gsr motor. not sure if this answers your question but all wires worked fine with old setup had a shop look at it and they have no clue with what is going on. help me

 

Are u sure its not hitting vtec cause its sometimes hard to hear with a stock setup. Also u shouldnt feel it when it comes on, it will make a smooth transition.

 

i have skunk2 stage2 cams i should hear vtec

 

theres ur problem u changed the cams............are u sure there vtec cams? cause it should matter
