jerrodh Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I have been getting a check engine light at or around VTEC periodically which remains on untill you turn the car off. Then if you restart it no light. I can drive/have it started for however long and the engine light doesn't come on its just when you get on it alittle bit. I'll probably take it to autozone or something to see what code is being thrown, but any ideas on the subject? A buddy of mine sugguested a knock sensor but didnt know since it stays on. Car runs fine with or without the engine light. No abnormal sounds/smells, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Check the code yourself. All you need is a paperclip and the ability to count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can handle the ability to count I'll have to work on the paperclip. And its a b16 and yes VTEC kicks in strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
