Ok I got a usdm b16 and the vtec just randomly stopped working...I cleaned the screen in the solenoid and reset everything and nothing...so im guess the solenoid went out...so if I buy one offline is it a direct replacement just swap em and it will be fine? or is other work needed? and does it matter if I put a jdm one on or a usdm, any help would be appreciated

 

yeah im wondering this too, how universal are vtec solenoids?? Does it matter if its a B,D,H OBD1, OBD2 vtec solenoid???

 

not sure on your question, but are you sure it's the solenoid? how's the oil level, cel?

 

oils fine, same as always nothing changed the levels good...as for the cel im not sure...so im guessing its the solenoid

 

make sure its not a cel before you just go out and replace it though so you dont just spend money unnecessarily you know??
