I'm getting a CEL, every once and a while, the code reader says it's a VTEC rocker arm actuator stuck open. Anyone ever throw a code for this? What exactly needs to be done to rectify this issue?

Do you have the exact code. Something like Pxxxx. Once you have that doing a search is much easier.

I have never heard of that before.
