help my vtec's broke!!!

[92 jdm h22a]

thanks 4 that interesting info i will double check the pan but i was under the car about 3 weeks ago changing the shift linkage and there was only a few scuffs from where i had some 16s on it and it was 2 low for this town but no dents? but ill look again. is possible that the filter in the pan is clogged a bit or something random? and ill consider the drive bro i really hate not running vtec my ls/vtec hatch was fully built na b4 turbo and it wouldve killed the non-vtec h22a lol

take a look at the oil pan.

if it is dented, it can obstruct oil flow to the pickup (which actuates the VTEC switch)

I had this problem a couple years ago, and purchasing and installing a new OEM oil pan & gasket fixed the problem!

^^^ you bent the fuck out of your oil pan then

OP you could have used the accord egr and didnt have to cut the egr wires
looks like the plug you're using for the vtec PSI is the one that goes for the fan sensor that goes on the t-stat (unless its a fansensor plug that your using for the actual vtec PSI)

theres a 10mm-12mm bolt close to the distribuitor on the front of the head take it off and hook up a pressure gauge to it, also check oil pressure on your head not on your block and check if you have it

[92 jdm h22a]

yea ill check the oil pressure i know its wired right. and i think i just used the extra plug off the prelude harness bc the oil pressure plug was broke. they messed up the knock sensor and the plug that goes under the distributor that looks the same as the oil pressure and thermostat plug its still broke but i got it plugged n. i have replaced the knock sensor tho. brand new from honda cost a fortune

i had the same problem my vtec would not kick in but i could barley hear it n i replaced the vtec gasket n it worked perfect maybe that could help it did for me

9 months.....i hope he has it figured out by now

[HappyGilmore]

I am having that same issue as well CEL and all and mine still isn't working right. I have check the wiring and everything. I will try some of the suggestions here and see what happens

[VEGASCOUPE]

it sound to me like you have a oil pressure problem

[h22sparkle]

aside from oil pressure do you have enough oil. If you dont vtec wont work thats why i have to leave the allmotor scene and go straight to boost.

[HappyGilmore]

That isn't good....and it's full on oil and everything and still throwing that code....

[chrischhorn]

dented oil pan? You sure your wiring is 100% perfect? Maybe just a bad solenoid or switch.....

make sure tps is reading right, I had a problem with my vtec due to a bad tps
