Default Running Vtec solinoid wire?

Where on the OBD1 wire harness(to the ECU) is the right place to run the Vtec wire from?

How do I find A4 on the harness? Where can I get a pin for the wire at? Radio Shack?

Thanks, thats what I was looking for.

Do I need to run 2 wires? One to the Vtec solenoind, and the other to the Vtec pressure switch?

I was under the impression that I only needed to run 1 wire.

Also, where can I get the pins for the harness?

Yes, you need to run two wires. As far as the pins for the wire harness, I took a trip to the junk yard, found an old busted up harness and took the pins from it. While your there, you might as well pick up the connectors for the solenoid and pressure switch. The pressure switch will be easy to find. The solenoid may be more difficult. Just use any honda waterproof coupling if you can't find the exact solenoid coupling.

Where is the Vtec pressure switch located on the block?

For the Vtec solinoid, Im just going to cut the plug off, and solider and shrink wrap the 2 wires together.
