Your obd1 so you dont have a crank angle sensor(otherwise known as a CKF-crank fluctuation sensor). Your TDC sensor is inside your distributor. Find out what your CEL or CELS are for and then you'll know more about how to fix your problem.
To check your CEL(check engine light), do this:
Find the diagnostic connector, which is a two wire blue connector found near the passengers feet, or in the centre console.
Short out the diagnostic connector with a piece of wire(I use a paperclip). The check engine light on the dash will flash the problem codes.
The ECU can signal simultaneous problems by blinking separate codes, one after the other. Problem codes 1 - 9 are indicated by 1 - 9 flashes, problem codes over 9 use one long flash as ten short flashes.
For example, if your CEL does 2 long flashes, and then 3 short flashes, thats 20+3=23, code 23 is knock sensor.
