vtech is interfering with the electronics. change the vtech.

FOR REAL?
I never would of guessed that. how or why is it doing this?
there are many notions as to this but none i realy trust ranging from intake needs cleaning,egr,valve lash to injectors plugged.
you seem very certain can i ask how your so certain?
dont misunderstand me im very thankful but as a mechanic with many years experience i am curious.

idk about the vtec interfering but we'll wait on buddy^ to explain how it interferes...i'd say check ur spark plugs nd wires first..maybe distributor..start with the small things like ur doing...maybe its something simple

i can tell you, i had a 90 accord i put a 93 jdm h22 into and it always had this damn problem and i could not find a fix for it. would run fine untill about 2500 the putt and sputter then after like 3200 it would go fine again.

changed all ign parts, timingbelt ,valve lash,did not change module in dist,but i cant see how it could be that nor the pickup in the dist. changed holes for inj, but still codes for cyl 2 cleaned egr valve.removed and cleaned vtec valve.all negative results,
got a very fiesable tip that states there is a plate on the top of the intake and under it are ports for egr to each cyl and they can get plugged,best tip ive had yet but im still up to suggestions,
