I wonder if vtec seal needs replacing or diaphragm in vtec solenoid is going. I like to run a bottle of lucas injection cleaner to make sure the injectors are atomizing well. I'm not a smog tech but have dealt with a few smog repairs since getting ASE cert. in 1991. I always try simple fixes first. A can of carb/intake cleaner is good vacuum leak tester, cleaning
the throttle body can help as well.

Thanks, I'll be cleaning my intake and doing an oil change before I take it for a retest today. Wish me luck!
