🕛 How Does A Vtec Engine Work In it something is. I will know, many thanks for an explanation.

Re: Will a VTEC run ok in a non VTEC car? yes, it will run just fine. though if you want vtec to work you will need to wire it up either straight to the ecu through the firewall (plug underneath the battery box, almost directly at the ecu) or through the shock towers to make it look OEM. How much horsepower does a 2.3 VTEC have? Horsepower. First-Generation CR-V Engines (1997-2001) The original 1997 Honda CR-V had a 2.0-liter B20B I-4 engine. It pushed out 126 horsepower and 133 lb.-ft. of torque. That’s pretty decent for 1997, considering it was actually an Acura Integra engine. ^{By Wesley Wren. Honda’s famed VTEC system is a fascinating workaround to squeeze performance out of an engine designed primarily for efficiency. For those out of the loop, VTEC is Honda’s} To make VTEC kick in, the engine must operate at a high enough speed and under a heavy enough load. The engine runs on a less powerful but more fuel-efficient camshaft profile at lower speeds. However, once the VTEC system is engaged, the engine can produce significantly more power. As a result, it is important to keep the engine RPMs high when The lost motion assembly in your DOHC Honda engine is a preloaded spring device that keeps your VTEC lobe from rattling when unlocked. Older Hondas use a fluid based lost motion assembly that hydraulically keeps your VTEC valvetrain in place. Later B series VTEC engines made the jump to a spring type spring system, that was far more reliable Before you can understand VVT solenoids, you need to know what variable valve timing (VVT) is. And before you can comprehend VVT, you need to understand how the camshafts and valves work together inside the engine. So, let’s start with the basics. How the Camshafts and Valves Work . Inside the engine, there’s a crankshaft and one or more VTEC is a type of variable valve-timing system developed and used by Honda. It stands for V ariable Valve T iming & Lift E lectronic C ontrol. Like most other variable-valve timing systems, Such engines are set to a single cam profile, whereby what works for a high RPM doesn’t work for a low one. Enter the VTEC Engine. VTEC works by modifying your engine’s cam profile and ensures transitions from high to low RPM (and vice versa) are smooth and indetectable. The camshafts are vital in this process as they control the valves. reset the ecu and changed the oil. still no vtec. i let the car warm up. drove it for about 10 minutes before trying to go to vtec, but it still does not engage. could it be my ecu. I have only had the car for 6 months. The vtec worked when i got the car. Any ideas. I am not very good at working on import engine's so please explain in detail. LPfam1j.
