you can also hook a test light, or DMM up to the solenoid harness...and set it up to where you can see it when driving..usually, put it under a windshield wiper. then, drive the car, and see if test light comes on, or you have voltage at the solenoid. this is the simple version of the test....if you dont know what im talkin about....pm, or aim me...i will be home later..at work now...

if you dont have voltage, its a wiring problem...BTW

it might be a wiring problem, i ran through a big puddle a few months back, it got some wires wet i dried them off and shit, the day before i didnt drive my car for 3 weeks i got an oil change..but yesterday my vtec was enguaging on and off

 

go ahead and hook up to see if it is a wiring problem...or just gum....

cool, i will thanks =)

 

your o2 sensor shouldnt makethathappen

 

i didnt think so, cus it never did

 

a bad o2 sensor will affect gas milage but not preformance

 

a bad upstream one will...downstream will do nothing but set a code.

check your oil, it happened to me, somehow there was a hole in my oil filter, and no, i didn't use a wrench to tighten it in the first place
