Cel code #9 is cyp which is the cylinder sensor. Check the sticky at the top of this forum thread.

Replace the distributor, at at least the distributor housing, coil and igniter should still be fine. Either buy an OEM distributor housing from honda or buy a distributor king aftermarket unit, most of the other aftermarket units are junk. For what it's worth I ran a D15B7 for years with a bad distributor sensor (can't remember if it was CYP/CKP or TDC anymore, but one of them was bad for years) in finally had one of the other 2 sensors go bad and that put it into limp mode.
