do search for a DIY ecu check.
it should tell you what's wrong.
=)
mine used to to do that.. it was my o2 sensor was loose.
but it most probably isn't the case for you.
there could be 100's of other reasons why.
so you should try do the ECU check.

its not uncommon for VTEC engines to use a bit of oil. this is normal and nothing to worry about. but driving your car hard with low oil isnt good

Which is why an Oil Pressue Guage is a must :)

I had super dirty/clogged injectors and for some reason i was burning more oil. Since i had them cleaned i have hardly lost any oil at all.

is it good idea to have 1 of these in vtec engine?

All good is low oil level..!

Of course. All it tells you is the level of oil, so if your running low, the pressure level will decrease (think drinking coke from a straw and it's at the bottom)
