Default v-tec help

I was wondering if any one can help me on my v-tech its not kicking in,and the speedodmeter just stays at zero but my friend said that i need the v-tech fluid in order for it to work. so can any one help me where I can get he fluid? and how many quarts do i need? and how much would it cost me?. i have v16 type-r i tried the p28 and the speedodmeter and v-tec still doesnt kick in.

thank you. tim

bwhahah VTEC fluid. thats a new one.

check your VSS (vehical speed sensor) on your tranny if your speedo isnt working.

check your oil leve as well, and then examine the VTEC solenoid after that.

... you also need to replace your muffler bearings while ur at it, other wise you'll leak vtec fluid out of your headlights, and your motor will hydrolock.

lol the vtec fluid theory is legendary

Anyways your speedo not working is definitely a problem. Your vtec will not kick unless your speedo is reading higher than ~15mph

i just use regular blinker fluid, it works as good as the expensive vtak fluid.
oh and make sure you have a whole 2quarts in there or you will only get half vtak.

this is where i order mine:http://kalecoauto.com/index.php?main...&products_id=6

your vtec is misaligned, take it to a shop with the proper tools to realign it.

LMFAO.....

my god ,this kid needs some help but where can we start , alot of bad info here i dont know exactly whats the problem..

the speedmeter doesnt have anything to do with your vtec, just drain the oil you have a put a new 4 quater of oil in with a new oil filter and unplug your ECU and your battery for couple minutes then put it back let the car run for a lil bit and then go and beat on it to see if v-tec engage....

Wrong. The speedometer does have something to do with vtec not engaging. If the speedo isnt working than no vtec. The car must be moving at at least ~15mph for vtec to engage which the ecu would not recognize that without a working speedometer.
