Default Code 4 - Worth Fixing? Affect Performance?

My car just started throwing a code 4, I randomly looked at the ecu and it was flashing code 4, check engine light doesnt come on though and I dont really notice any differences anywhere

What affect does code 4 have? Why is it being thrown? Worth fixing?

The car is an obdo 88 crx with a d16a6 - turbo

Thanks

I would highly recomment any code that represents something inside of your distributor.

my cyp is bad, and my car stutters and has a roaming idle

well if your smart and read what it says about code 4 you would know that you should fix as soon as possible or els your car will run like ****. if you have any car knowledge you would konw this. in my opinion any code is worth fixing.

Code 4? Crank position sensor...that's eh...pretty good one to clear incase your timing belt jumps a notch or something...but whatever, it's only and engine it won't hurt performance!
