Default vtec doesnt alway kick in

hey again guys
this is my sec thread with engine problems this week, first one was (my teg revs from 800 to 1400 at stops) still having problems but I forgot to mention my vtec doesnt aways kick in, on good day it hits at 6000rmp (b16 a1) and other days is doesnt at all. I always let the car warm up before even hitting that high, I drive for about 10 min then let her go. (but I dont go nuts on it)


did a compression test and each one was roughly 200 think the lowest was 195, but they were all within 10

whats wrong with my vtec

thanks guys

Do you have enough oil?
Also it could be a faulty vtec solenoid.
Double check all the wiring to make sure nothing is loose.
