Default engine sputters when accellerate (94 civic dx mini me swap)

i recently did a mini me swap on my dx. its a b7 block with a z head. i followed some guys write up step-by-step. I'm using a z6 timing belt, dizzy, plugs and wires, P28 ecu with vtec wired up, y8 headgasket, with d15b7 IM and EM. yes i do have a check engine light but it just keeps on long flashing. my friend said it would be the O2 sensor. i need my car running by tomorrow morning. please help

if you need info if i left something out that you might need to know let me know

thanks.

i checked my cel and its funny cause my cel just blinks long flashes ( 11 of them) but my SRS light is the one that tells me the cod its 1 half second which is one and 9 long flashes, so i dont know the problem with my fuel tank pressure sensor.

while the vehicle is running pull each plug wire. if the motor doesnt sound any diffrent in running when you pull one wire then that is the cylinder you will be diagnoising.

from there check spark and or fuel and or cylinder compression.

srs light is for the airbag system.

cel flashing is a potentially damaging condition to your cat and or motor.

i have done that, and the car still sounds the same, sounds like a miss fire every second or so.
spark is good fuel is good, havent checked compression. will do that today after work.
and i know its the srs light is for the air bag, just saying that its funny how that one is telling me the code, (im not the orig. owner of the vehicle, so dont know what the owner before me did to it, spent over 1000 fixing the car)

Click here to learn how to read the CEL code. Is it CEL code 10 for the IAT sensor? Check whether it is plugged in.

Regarding the sputtering, it sounds like the mechanical timing may be off by one tooth on the timing belt.

i have checked that several times and the check engien jsu flashes 11 times.
and i have double checked if everything is plugged in and its good.
checked the timing like five days ago and was off one tooth but have already fixed that problem

There's no code 11. Is it actually code 1 (O2 sensor) repeating over and over again?
