there is/was a small oil leak at the back of my head. i figured it was either the vtec solenoid gasket or the oil pressure switch o-ring so i ordered both from Honda. Parts were searched and ordered through my VIN number so all should be correct.
from looking around online on how to do the job i was expecting to have to remove 2 electrical connectors and that the solenoid assembly would look like this
however there was only one electrical connection and my solenoid unit looks like this
so this raises a few questions for me. where is my oil pressure switch? and why did hondas database from my VIN number show a unit like the first pic above? is it possible at some stage my car was modified to run a different type of solenoid?
