does the s have 2 or 1 vtec solenoids and is it easy to get to the solenoid filter?

Easy to get to. You just need allen keys and a socket.

See here from my SC install:



Best to remove 3 bolts on the heatshield and tilt it upwards, that allows you to get onto the 2 allen bolts. You need an allen key with a head on it that allows you to unbolt at an angle, or you will be there all day Unclip the sensors from the VTEC assembly.


VTEC assemblt removed, you can see the rubber O ring which seals up against the SC support bracket. Underneath the support bracket is the oil pressure sensor, which is threaded into the block. Removed with a 15/16 socket.

 

cool, nice gloves to. Is it worth checking the solenoid filter and where is it?

 

Thanks Got to protect my nice hands

Not really worht iy, unless you have a VTEC problem.

If you are looking in at the engine bay standing at the front bumper, its the front left corner of the engine.

 

It's easy to indentify the VTEC solenoid. It will be the only rusty looking part under your engine bay

 

In secret i use those pervy gloves to, mine are white though.

 

I hope just for automotive work

 

Of course, the mrs won't let me where them in public
