Default Check enging light turns on above 35 mph??

I got a 92 prelude with a jdm h22a swap in it. Well anyway my check engine light goes on if i go over 35 to 40 mph, then if i turn it off and start it back up it goes away. It recently started happening after I flushed my raidiator and changed the oil. Does anyone know what's going on?

Well i checked it out and it gave me a code 23 and 36. I believe that 23 is the knock sensor, should I be worried about this, and I can't find what 36 is?

Yeah code 23 is the knock sensor, u can eather replace the sensor, or get a chipped ecu and no more knock sensor. Code 36 is traaction control only on jdm ecus. That's fine, ur car doesn't have it.

I'm thinking chipping it is cheaper (not sure) and if I do this will it elminated the code 36 traction control? Is there any reccommendations on chips?

you dont need to worry about the code 36.
it does not cause the check engine light to come on, it only shows up when you check it.
the code 23 is the one that is making hte light come on. did you use a shileded wire for the knock sensor ?
