Default Code 4 when cold

the past few days my car has been throwing code 4 CKP - crank position sensor in weather anything lower than 5 degrees fahrenheit. i'm running a b20 in a crx. anyone have an idea why crank position sensor code happens only in cold weather? a friend who is a GM mechanic says i have a faulty crank position sensor and that i needed to replace it with a new sensor located on the block near the crank ... but from search on the code it had something to do with the dizzy. i have a brand new dizzy not even 1 month old. any ideas?

I had problems with CEL's since it's been cold too. But mine was cylinder 1 misfire, and cylinder 4 misfire, but the car ran fine.

Maybe it just has something to do with everything being so f'ing cold.

My zc is doin about the same thing... What ecu do you guys use? I have an SI and an LS ecu... But when i plug the SI in the car will start and get to 4,000 rpm... But it won't go anywhere. But when i just turn the key the ecu flips 10 then 20 when i turn it on it flip 9 10 14... I'm not sure what the deal is and it's hard to figure out what's goin on... Seattle doesn't have many zc mechanics...
