Default VTEC Stutter

Hi all,
We have a small problem at the moment. When VTECing the car seems to be stuttering and struggling a bit. I check the oil about a week ago and topped it up. Any ideas from those intelligent people who know how oily and greasy stuff works?

Cheers

Edd

Have you tried tapping the map sensor - it's the little black thing which says MAP sitting on the throttle body.

Yeah, def MAP sensor. That was my problem. I just hit it with the back of a screwdriver as advised, and it was the easiest fix I have ever done!

Just don't try and unscrew it as I did
