Default check engine light

My 95 gsr is throwing a check engine light. I jumped it with the plug on the passenger side to get the light to flash. The way it flashed I'm not to sure what it means. It went 2 regular flashes then 2 quick flashes, 2 regular flashes 3 quick flashes. I need help on knowing that these codes mean. It is a rebuilt motor with only 350 miles on it. The check engine light only comes on after a little bit of driving but goes back off when the car shuts off

Sounds like you have two codes, Code 22, and 23

22=VTEC pressure valve
23=Knock sensor

What kind of problems are you having with the car? No VTEC?

These are the ECU codes:

22 (VTEC pressure valve)
23 (Knock sensor)

That seems odd that VTEC would still engage, even with a bad knock sensor...

if you change the knock sensor it should take car of your CEL completely

Why would my plug for the the vtec pressure valve keeps getting oil inside of the plug? I'll wipe it out but then it comes back

Is there some kind of seal or something for that sensor? The check engine light seems to come on quicker when it has oil in the plug. Some times when I'm taking off and it hits vtec it sounds like its tapping out would that be caused by the bad sensor?
