Can anyone please do a DIY on how to clean a vtec Solenoid filter?? I heard if you don't do
it right, oil can go through your block..

Yeah you've got to make sure you do it right. Having oil go through your block would pretty much ruin your day. Sidenote: If you can't figure out how to do this by looking at the solenoid and searching a little on Google, don't try it.

cant you just take out the vtec solenoid gasket filter that's inside of it? like how you can just take it out from b and d series? cause the say that it makes your vtec louder. LOL....

B and D Series are way easier then our 6th gen accords. There's too much stuff in the way. and i don't know about vtec getting louder, until now I still haven't done it. So no vtec for now yoo!!
