Default 00 accord problem

i keep having this problem, with my car when its real hot outside and i have been driving for a while, the vtec decides it wants to shut its self off and my check engine light comes on the problem is it stops at 4 thousand rpms and ut doesnt allow me to go past that. the code says vtec malfunction and or problem in cooling system and or problem in 3rd pressure switch or something. i already replaced my vtec once and i check my oil on a regular bases. its never low. the funny thing is when the car cools off everything is normal. i dont know what to do can some one help please.

www.helminc.com is a good place, it could be the VTEC pressure switch located near the oil filter.
