well...i just got done checking, eveything is in the right order, also my connections are not soldered. they are twisted are wraped by heat shrink. the weird part is, today my car was running great but sometimes it would throw the code 4 and now its stuck on code 4.

You probably should look into soldering your connections once you get the wires right. It is not that hard, and you dont want your ecu connections randomly disconnecting themselves which always happens with twisted/butt connectors.

I had the same problem. But I found out the bolts that hold the distributor to the head worked themselfs loose. Tightened them up and haven't had the code 4 since. I hope it doesn't come back. Sucks when you can't rev past 4000rpm

when you have never ending problems with a car, just get rid of it. That is what I did and I am happy that I did. No more money out of the pocket for parts....good luck on fixing your car, keep us posted. So if I ever decide to get a b16 and I have the same problem then i will know what to do.

I was throwing a code 6 that wouldn't go away.

I had the two plugs twisted around each other prior to being plugged in and the wires were being pulled.

I untwisted the plugs and the problem went away.

hey now.. don't use such words as hate.. and no f-bombs here..

anyway.. take your time.. get yourself a helms manual and go through the steps...

i hate to say this, but i didn't have a single problem when i dropped my b16a in.. i may be the only one..
