what codes are you throwing, if any?i had like 2 year old gas in the tank and that may very well be the problem. drain the gas out of the tank with the plug on the bottom and put fresh gas in there. also, check your injectors for problems. listen man, i am trying to help. swap out the gas, it is a major problem if its old. if you donjt think its getting spart get a timing gun and stick in on any wire to see if it blinks. if it blinks its fine, check to make sure your fuel pump is working by either disconnecting the fuel line or listen for a whirr from the pump. if its getting fuel and spark then check your injectors. also, they ARE suppose to come w/ a vtec solenoid.i said earlier "that is the 12 valve system, obviously you know that. the vtec in that car activates the lobe to use all 16 valves instead of 12 turning it into an si head basically". you have to have a solenoid to engage the lobe.
