              i honestly think my solenoid is going bad or needs to be cleaned, or something is up with my distributor......or something simple like an oil change

                    msd is pointless and a waste of money stock distributor is good till like 500hp

                            You have a pressure problem!!!!!

                            1st and 2nd dont put alot load so you will get vtec but in 3rd and higher gears you will not..

                            First thing you should do is check your vtec pressure switch and vtec solenoid..

                            But I strongly believe there is loose contract in the wires so check that!
