Starts for a second, then code 8
Okay so I have a 1990 civic lx. I purchased a dpfi harness form monotech that was convereted to mpfi and had a little jumper for the injector and dizzy pins to the ecu. When I start the car, it'll act like it starts and i'll take it out of position 3, then the car will turn off, and when I try start it again, and it'll just crank until it throws a ecu code 8 which is TDC.
I looked up what this code means, and what could be the problem. Either the dizzy is bad or the car is out of time. I checked to see if the car was in time, and it came into check. The dizzy is good, because I use it everyday in my wagon. Also the pm6 we are using is the one from my wagon. So I am kinda stuck, and need some help.
Thanks

The wiring for the dizzy is wrong if your getting a TDC code.. Re-wire the dizzy to ECU, better yet trace the wires and make sure they are going to the right location on the ECU from the DIzzy.
