Default '91 Civic sedan with two CELs.

I'm pretty sure it's a 1.5L DPFI, automatic trans, never worked on one of these motors before . It doesn't have an intake manifold like on all of my b series/h series/newer d series motors...looks like it has a black top-mount air cleaner.

Anyways, the guy brought this car to me with a Code 6 and Code 16. Code 6 should be easy enough to fix...either bad temp sensor or bad temp sensor wire. Code 16 is the one I need help with.

Can I get a link to a guide or walk-through on testing the injectors on this specific platform? I keep searching and finding how to test on regular fuel injected motors like the newer d series, b series, etc. I also noticed that this car/motor doesn't seem to have an injector resistor box...or it does and it's just not mounted on the driver side firewall/strut tower area like most other hondas.

Also...could code 16 be caused by a bad main relay/bad main relay solder joints, or a bad ECU?

Thanks.

New problem...coolant leaking down the back of the motor on the driver side. On the motors I'm accustomed to working on, this means the end of that coolant tube is leaking at the end nearest the water pump. Does the same apply for this 1.5L DPFI motor? If so...it's just a matter of replacing the o-ring?

Still needing the first post answered as well.
