Default DOHC ZC distributor question.

alright this morning just before the eibach meet i went to get gas and as soon as the caravan was about to leave i got a check engine light. it read "8". which i found is TDC sensor.

with that code do i have to change my distributor since its within it?
which distributor is best for the dohc zc?
if i drove with the engine light on would anything be harmed?

thanks in advance

Nothing is broke.. If that car isnt running its probably because the ignitor went.. Very common amoung out dizzys unfortionatly..

As for replacement. 88-89 Acura Integra LS

did u do the MPFI conversion on your car? usually a TDC sensor goes off for 2 reasons,
1.. bad connection
2.. Timing is way off

reset and see how long it takes for it to come back on, check all the connections, and check your timing .. i've never really seen one go out.. its just a magnectic pick up.. there isn't any wearable part in there.
