daym clean, what the hell is goin on with your ride man?!

 

WTF??

 

sorry bout the gay thing, just help if you can

 

That would be MIL not cel. and it's the VTEC solenoid valve

 

so what does that mean?

i thought i might not have VTEC cause when i put my oil pressure line from my turbo to my block i think i overtightened it and stripped the seal so some leaks. or maybe the T fitting isn't tight enough. any help

 

how would putting the oil pressure line from the turbo to the block affect the VTEC at all???
WTF???

yes

 

......isn't it oil pressure is one of the parameter being read in order for the VTEC to actuate? which means, with an oil leak, the VTEC may NOT actuate. that's what clean is trying to say......

.......and everybody, fukin' relax on doggin' my bro clean. he was just asking a question........he aint gay.......

 

yah Thermal understood what i meant. VTEC activates by reading oil pressure and the tach or rpms. and if one is fucked = no VETC. so thermal maybe you would know........should i get a new pressure line and wait like i did w/ the banjo bolt.....or could i maybe weld it?

 

it's a big possibility bro. how bad is the leak anyway? do u know exactly what part of the fitting it's leaking from? i would fix that soon bro. i know that's like the hardest **** to do in a GReddy set-up. if u need the fittings, u can get some good ones from a hardware store, ACE hardware specifically. u can get it in brass or stainless.....

 

Hello.............. Did you NOT read this????
