Default What's the problems?!

Can anybody tell me why my car starts and sounds like this? I'm struggling finding where the problems are. It's pain in the ***. Don't mind me cause I'm a noob and it's my first car.

It starts, but dies on it's own. click to watch the vid below. Thanks.

It's like when I'm driving on the freeway. When I rev up to engage my vtec mode, but the car iself shuts down on it's own. Does that over and over.

Are you throwing any check engine lights? Please describe what has been done with this car that you are at this point.

vtec mode? How is it a mode?
Looks like an Integra dash, but if so, you don't have vtec based off the redline.

Shuts down on it's own over and over? How does it shut down more than once? And what is shutting down?
If you mean that the engine dies, or cuts out, or something similar, then try actually being descriptive.

And, as grumblemarc says, post up the CEL codes the car is throwing.

Default Re: What's the problems?!

code 7: throttle angel code
code 30: tcm signal
code 21: v-tec solenoid valve
code 22: vtec oil pressure switch
code 30: not sure what that is...
code: abs sensors, but I deleted abs. Will figure that out.

Don't see how any of this codes cause my car to shuts down (off) when I rev up the car on the freeway. Having hard time to start the car.

what were the onset of these codes? thats a bunch of codes for a all of a sudden thing
code 7 is tps
code 30 is auto code
try put power(battery volts) to the vtec solenoid and see if you hear it click

code 7 might cause it to shut off

what ecu?
