Remove the VTEC solenoid and clean the oil screen out thoroughly (brake cleaner perhaps). If the rubber gasket surrounding the screen is dry/cracking, you will need to replace it completely (not too much $$$). Good luck!!

hrmm..
what ECU are you running?

your statement is unclear.....
you should have everything plugged in on the vtec solenoid (green plug & grey plug) in order for VTEC to work (along with the VSS & coolant temp sensor)..
