Is the power cord properly plugged in the wall?

Have you charged the battery yet?

You may want to remove your solenoid and check that the filter screen isn't clogged, if it is this would cause Vtec to not engage completely. any amount of even slightly dirty oil will begin to build up deposits on this screen.

Sounds like it engages initially but maybe there's not enough oil pressure to hold it. What car is it in? Could definitely be the solenoid. It's vtec btw.
