Default my car runs like complete ***....

88 Honda Civic LX, 94 D16Z6, OBD0, PS9 ECU (chipped, TurboEdit2.0), 88-91 Si dizzy...

code(s): 9


its just running like ***. idle is unstable, car 'putts' (you know what i mean if you have heard it before), doesnt sound like it firing on every cylinder. timing should be at about 16-18deg (was idling better last week). car accelerates like the timing it really retarded or missing, at about the speed of a dieing CRX HF (stock)...

the code 9 apeared one night leaving work (week or two after doing my MPFI swap on the D15B2) while doing a one wheeler, been there ever sence...

please help!

that was a good distributor....13years ago...

they look like cooper wire...kept getting a TDC code, people on H-T told me to look into it, and a buddy did too...so to amuse myself i took a look... [i replaced an ignitor and cap/rotor a while ago...sure as hell didnt notice that!]
