If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Did you get the code checked, as mentioned in the other thread?

if the oil is good...check the code, It's free at Oreily's, Advance, and autozone...If it's not the oil, then it could be MAP sensor, or VTEC solenoid...or a number of a few other things...
