Default Help with check engine code P1381 CMP sensor A intermittent interruption

Hey ya'll I posted up here about two weeks ago, and as I said before I changed the distributor, distributor cap, ignition wires, and spark plugs about two months ago. After some answers on here I properly reset my ECM and the check engine light disapeared. It came back about a week and a half after resetting my ECM, and after hitting half a tank of gas witht the code: P1381 CMP sensor A intermittent interuption. I looked at a diagram of the distributor and there is no CMP sensor inside of it, so if anyone knows where that sensor is or what the code means that would be a great help!

Ok well this car does not have a cmp sensor. It has a cyp and tdc sensor, both of which are in the distributor. You either have a faulty connection or a faulty "new" distributor....
