There is a screen in the VTEC valve that might be clogged.
Wouldn't that throw a CEL?


VTEC hits harder in your civic/ prelude because the A/F ratio is tuned more in the S, crossover is much easier on the motor but hits just as hard.

So, it senses whether the solenoid kicks in and sends oil pressure to the to the lost motion dohicky's? I didn't know that.


I've noticed that vtec engagement's pretty subtle on my '2k. It's not the "force me in my seat" engagement of my civic.
That was directed that way. appologies MX, should have been more specific. I believe I saw Prelude as well in this discussion.

No problem. Just got me a little confused (not that there is anything unusual about me getting confused ).
