Default CEL #13 & #16 WTF!!!

CEL WTF is going on here?? It appears to only appear after warm-up. Never experianced this one before, but I'm a noob for the most part and learning as I go. It's on a god friend/customer's car and would like to solve asap.

I'm thinking I should check the continuity of the wires and see if that might be it, but would that not be a single cyl misfire code??

And my helms is no where to be found, but would that have a troubleshooting procedure(s) guide to throwing a cel #9?

Thanks and feel free to flame away if it's something really trivial

{edit} ok, so we cleared the 9 by swapping dizzy (rebuild actually), then after we plug the p30 in (& after burning tried and true badass b16 map) she starts throwin #13 & 16...

WTF!!!

Cylinder Sensor is inside the dist. Usually means you need to rebuild the dist if it just came out of no where and you havent touched the dist wiring at all.

Oh yeah.. The ******s that threw in the A2 swap were TONY KIM of SPEED CONCEPT in oregon. Biggest bunch of losers ever!!!

Listen to this, and I'll start a NW thread for this bs..

So I send my customer/buddy over to checkout this car on CL/H-T/NWSR. He goes over there and I tell him not to buy ****, but he does (so not much sympathy there lol) and on the way back the fucken wheels slips so its waaaay off, by like 90 degrees. And then oneheadlight goes out. And then the axle starts making noise lol, and then the I-Shaft support bracket that was held in place with a stupid alt bolt. And now the dizzy is prolly bad.. And its a leaker, and yadayada this pos was sold by TONY KIM of SPEED CONCEPT in TIGARD, OREGON.

So I checked the wiring and all seems good, gotta run and give it a once over when I get back, the wiring comes in through the firewall.

Wow you haven't given us anything useful for information such as :

Year/make/model of car

Type of ECU being used

...and I gather it's a B16A2 swap, right?

If it's OBD1 then the code 9 means replace the distributor (CYP sensor is inside) or that there are wiring issues at the distributor or pins for the distributor wires running to the ECU.

If it's an OBD2 car/ECU you need to get the P code rather than reading a jumper flashing code.

GOT me lol!!

Yup, I was running a lil late and posted that up in about 30secs and totally spaced the specifics..

But yeah...

OBD-I EG, with B16A2 swap. Running a P30 and a P28.

Ill throw in a dizzy off the hatch I got down here and I'm sure that'll solve it.

Thank you very much for catching me slipping. I have a nasty habit of leaving stuff out like that. And thank you for the very informative reply.

Gotta love you hondatech guys. Makes our job a hellavu lot easier lol.

So both the P30 and P28 throw the same code 9, right?

I say swap out the dist. if you have a spare.

What have you done to trouble shoot the problem since your last posts?

Did you ever swap out the distributor?

OBD-I doesn't have P codes, they're transferable from OBD-II to OBD-I, not from OBD-I to OBD-II.

OBD-II P codes are specific inside one of the OBD-I general categories, OBD-I codes just list the general category (ie. 43 - Fuel Supply System) opposed to OBD-II where there's like 6 codes about it).
