Default would a bad cylinder position sensor cause the car not to start?

i've had a no starting problem for 3 weeks now, there is spark, fuel, and the timing is right, the last time i tried to start it it threw a code 9, which is the cylinder position sensor.

BTW its a crx w/ b20

are you sure that your timing is lined up correctly?

nope, just stock b20, with aem fuel pressure regulator. it ran really strong, for one day, then didnt go again. i changed the distributor out of a known running car. i'm completely out of ideas, i'm going out tonight to check resistances.
