I've had my check engine light on since i got the car. I checked it today and i'm getting a code 8 and code 9 and according to http://fourthgenhatch.net/helms-ecucodes.html i'm getting a tdc position(code 8) and a No. 1 cylinder position (code 9).
Is this telling my that my cam timing is off? I ask if it is the cam because it doesn't say btdc it just says tdc.

 

check the inside of your distributor, something is loose or not working. I had this problem with my 91 integra and turns out it's the distributor internal that were bad, after getting a new distributor, the problem went away.

 

I'm sorry i guess i should have posted my car is running great. I just drove 500mi+ to kansas city and back. Granted i'm only getting 35mpg at 75mph but it does have the 4.22 gear ratio. One thing my car does is every once in a while it will get a studder at like 2300rpm every time it gets there the car studders no matter what gear. Sometimes it's higher in the rpm range and if i shut off the key it goes to 2300rpm. But no mater what rpm it does it at it starts at that rpm from when i turn the car on

 

hey everyone having same problem... ive been told and looked around that its the dizzy somthing to do with it .. throwing solid code 9. check the plug caps and make sure there nothing loose inside. then check cap and rotor. the main sleeve that runs into the dizzy the coil packs and stuff go. having that prob write now . still runs but very weak spark. think going to just buy anotehr dizzy??
