Default Laggy and check engine light...

I have a stock 92 b15 civic, and this is a really big emergency because I have a test at 730AM and my car just threw this light at 230AM...

The car just started feeling really laggy at half throttle in fourth, and all of a sudden I threw the light...the motor sounds different than normal, like maybe more ticking than usual or something louder than normal.....HELPPPPP

Can anyone tell me if this is serious or not or if I should start walking to school now???

jump the two wire plug to the right of the glove box with a paper clip and count how many times the cel flashes, slow flashes and quick flashes, then tell us what it is and we'll try to help

Well, the code is going to repeat itself. So if you're up to 133, the code has probably repeated itself a good 20-30 times by now.

it will keep flashing until you pull out the paper clip, for an example if it flashes like 4 times slow and once real fast it would be code 41

if it is a continuous short flash sequence it could be 1-9 correct?

Almost sounds like it might be an ECU problem.

Got a digi cam with video? Do a 30 second video of it and post it. If you need hosting, shoot it to me in an email. here

So, did you take the car to Checker or Autozone and get them to scan it for you?
What came of it?
