Default what the heck is going on with my car??? can someone help me out plz?

okay so when i was driving today i shifted into 3rd well outta no where it just seemed like i was over reving the engine so i put it into 4th....well when i did that it seemed like it had no power then i could hear my intake being louder then normal.....

its throwing out code 16 and 1 from the ECU

heres a link to the video i made

http://myspacetv.com/index.cfm...66318

also i did shift into 1st and 2nd and then so forth....


i own a 1990 honda civic 1500DX


also i took off the air intake stuff and was looking to see if it was the fuel injector well at least the top one was working but i have no clue if the bottom one is....while i was stepping on the gas and had the intake stuff off it started to smoke up a little bit....hopefully this can help out too?

That doesnt sound toooo safe, but if you say fuel is coming out from somewhere on the manifold then most likely from what Hanmin said it can be a fuel injector.

code 16 is a fuel injector like the other guy said ,what could be happening s you have an injector stuck open ,which would throw a code 16 ,then the unburned fuel is messing with the o2 which is probly where your code 1 (o2 sensor) is comeing from

Fix the codes first, also unplug battery for 5 mins to reset ecu to clear the code or CEL./
Also brown injector on top green on bottom.
