Can somebody help ive had it apart 4 times my vetc on my 96 accord f22 will not kick in the vtec solonoid was just replaced i have good oil pressure i can't figure it out please help

 

I moved this from the DIY section to the General Help section. As per the forum rules, please do not post help question in the DIY section.

 

how do you know vtec isn't working?

 

I gotta large flow chart guide on everything vtec and how to make it work. Give me your email and ill send it to you as its way more than i even wanna try to get on here.

 

Thank you freighter44 My email is codyrusch1@gmail.com

And to g22cd5 it just stopped working about a week ago i can just feel it is not kicking in I've had a couple friends that have the same car and they don't know why it isn't working either

 

Have you checked for stored codes?

Any other issues with the car?

 

Ya it's clear no stored codes

 

I had an EX and I never felt vtec kick in. Vtec enables around 1800-2500 rpm.

No engine codes = working vtec.

At high rpm, you probably feel the intake runners open to allow more air into the engine.

One thing you may want to do is to clean the EGR ports. There is a link in the common diy thread on top of the gen tech help forum for the 94-97 accords.

 

Well said, i too have a 96 EX (5speed) f22b1 vtec and have never "felt the vtec kick in"
