Re: (sileighty_911)

a friend of mines said that a bad vtec solenoid will kick when it feels like it and can mess up the timing of your valve opening. And that is something I've never heard of.

VTEC engagement depends on a number of things like revs, oil pressure, etc. I could be wrong, but saying a bad solenoid will "kick-in by itself" doesn't make much sense ...
