I have annoying problem with the VTEC on my b18c4.
When I drive the car from cold I drive it sensibly until its up to temperature, then when I put my foot down,no VTEC,no matter how long you drive about.
But after it's up to temperature,if I turn the ignition off for around 20 seconds then put it back on VTEC works perfect. I have to do this same procedure every time the car cools down a little after being parked of whatever.
The engine is very well serviced,had every serviceable item replaced on it before I put it in.
I'm running it off a chipped p30 ecu, it's the same even if I change chips.
I took the VTEC solenoid off,took the spool valve out,cleaned it all up,tested the solenoid and cleaned the filter screen (which was barely dirty), still the same so I tryed a different solenoid,no joy.
If anyone could help me out it would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Jamie
