Default No vtec......

Now its my turn to ask yall......ok my accord is boosted right! well igot my car back from the shop and half the time my vtec wont "Kick In" ya know. So ive been through the normal pocedures.
1. Normal Oil Level
2. Just replaced Vtec solenoid,Spark plugs with NGK Iridium ik22,rotor and ignition cap,and wires
3.oil pressure switch is hooked up.
4. Good Oil.

what else could cause the prob. sometimes it will kick in and then quit and work again. So what do you thnk could cause the prob.

Thanks Guys

Im assuming your running at least a decent ECM,I would check speed sensor,as it sends information to the ECU,Also even though you checked the oil,it may be due for a change.You should at least be throwing a code or 2.

Change the oil/filter, check the screen, reset the light. See what happens.
