Gates Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid P/N:VVS175
Gates VVS361 VVT solenoid for the 1996-2000 Honda Civic 4-cylinder 1.6L and other vehicles controls the oil flow for valve timing. It is designed to OE specifications in fit, form and performance, and it also fits the 1996-1997 Honda Civic Del Sol 4-cylinder 1.6L.
A rough idle, lower fuel economy or a check engine light can mean the solenoid is wearing out. Before you replace it, rule out a loose connector, damaged wiring and a low oil level, since any of those can look the same from the driver's seat.
This VVT solenoid fits the 1996-2000 Honda Civic 4-cylinder 1.6L and the 1996-1997 Honda Civic Del Sol 4-cylinder 1.6L. The engine in either car takes one solenoid.
