fried dizzy?
 

Ok, as many of u may know, i tried to swap out a obd1 dizzy onto my obd0 setup. Well, for some reason, it didn't work...so i figured the hell with it, i'll throw my old Si dizzy back on, go home, and give u guys the lowdown. Now for some odd reason, i keep throwin a cel (code 9). Everything worked fine (no cel's) before i tried the swap, just after. I've tried everything i can think of...even went as far as rippin all the wiring harness out and rewiring the entire motor...still code 9. But the really strange part is, after u start it up, no code until the rpm goes above 2600. Anyone got any ideas? Bad dizzy? Bad ecu? I need to figure this out before i throw my turbo on.

i believe 9 is crank angle but i could be wrong. its something in the distributor though. atleast i think so haha. too lazy to go check

Re:fried dizzy?
 

your ignitor could be starting to go, somtimes when they are starting to go theyll throw a crank angle code... does your tach seem to get screwy when its gonna throw a code?

Re:fried dizzy?
 

once and a while the tach will bounce around, not too often though. It does kinda stumble a bit at idle. Rpm never really drops, just sounds like a missfire.

yeah im gonna say its an ignitor

Man i hope so! that's an easy fix, since i got about 7 or 8 ignitors layin around. I'm gonna try that and see, if not, i got a old crappy Si dizzy layin around with good sensors, just bad bearings. If the ignitor don't work, then i'll change the sensors and see what happens. Thanx dude!
