My car is really running sh*tty in vtec; it gets really loud in vtec, louder then usual, and it feels like it's losing power??My engine is 16k old, is this signs of a neede valve adjustment??
Actually, there's a substantial loss in power; I was doing some "comparative acceleration" tests with my buddy's nissan sentra spec R, which I usually out accelerate with ease in vtec, but this time, my teg didn't go anywhere in vtec and the spec R out accelerated me! This has me a little worried, is it this bad when a car is in need of a valve adjustment, or could ther be something wrong with the vtec system??I'm going to get a valve adjustment sometime this week, and a compression test while I'm at it...It's an lsvtec conversion btw....
