Thread: VVL wierd activating points w/MSS was working great?

mss set at 4850 and 5100k

Did the swap 9 months ago and had never had a problem. For the past few weeks I have been driving really easy and not hitting VVL to save gas ($4.99 in San Diego).

Yesterday I had to make a quick move and didnt hear the cams activate till 6.5k . So I tried it again and it was like normal. Did it again didnt activate till 6.5k again.

I would have to say 50% working as usual. MSS reads rpms fine and says that both activation points are on...

I saw a little of debris on the wires near the solenoids. Maybe i'll try to recrimp the wire.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated...!

Where did you tap the RPM signal from? I used mine right off the ecu. I know the wire that the MSD people use won't work with the MSS.

Ecu As well it was working great.. It reads properly... Im sad but car still feels stronger than my DE.

Beat on it for a bit, hit vvl at wot around ten times.

Take a look at some of the posts in this thread http://www.sr20forum.com/sr20ve-sr16ve/234328-vvl-louder-sometimes.html

Thanks for the link!

Yeah I was beating it today (vvl and my pecker) and it wouldnt even lift any more all through out rpms. So I used some of my RC electric motor cleaner and sprayed it all over the connections and bam I have VVL again. Hopfully this isnt a FLUK. Sux because gas is really killing me!

Why not just solder/heatshrink the connections to prevent this in the future?

Thats called spam. He did it in a few other topics too.
