So the other day my vtec was kicking harder than ever, i cut it off and the next day when i drove it a check engine light came on and vtec doesn't seem to be kicking anymore, or if it is not noticable [crossover]. I haven't found me box thing that blinks the code, and no one around me where i live can read it because they say my car has to be a 96?
Well anyways car is a 94 honda del sol vtec [b16a3] if anyone has any suggestions they would be kindly appreciated.
