Default b 16 engine problem plz help

hi i have a 91 crx dx with a b16 swap, the motor has been in the car and running fine for almost a year now. today though, i was driving and it bogged down till i came to a stop and it died. now i can start it, and it idles ruff and wont go past 2 to 2.5k rpm. i am thinkin it might have jumped timing. but am hoping it is not that, it did not make any wierd noises when it started to die on the road. no check engine light and no codes are being thrown. any help would greatly be appretiated.

also it seams real rich, if i mash the pedel it wants to back fire and smells of fuel.

Have you checked to see if the timing is correct yet?

ok found the problem, the bearing went out in the distributor and melted the rotor and it twisted enough to make it not run right, but just a quick glance and it looked fine. so i replaced the distributor and now i am throwing a code 66 anyone have any idea what that code is, i did a search and found nothing. thanks for the help

Code 66? You sure you're reading it right?
