New!!! ECU CODE 4 (crank angle sensor)
 Hi I'm new to this forum, I drive a 89 Honda Civic DX HB, its still all stock. But I got a Janspeed universal muffler(got off of Ebay) I'm gonna put on it, is a 2.25in pipe a good size or should i go to a 2.5 in exhaust pipe? But anyways My car is throwing a Code 4 crank angle sensor and this really sucks cause when the chek engine light comes on I can't rev past 4000rpm and my car losses a lot of power. Does any one know how to fix this I'm totaly stumped :help:

You'll probably want to check the connection to, or replace the crank angle sensor.

I had that problem with my Jeep Cherokee, and it was just the connection... I would certainly check that before replacing your dizzy...

Re: New!!! ECU CODE 4 (crank angle sensor)
UM YES!!!
The dx distributor is for DPFI and didnt you convert to MPFI. You have to get the sohc zc or a d16a6 distributor(obd0) for it to work! Oh and please dont bring 2.5+ yr old posts back, just make a new topic

I'm very sorry
I did create a new post but then found this one on the search function and had a new idea because I am really frustrated at the wiring//some say it doesn't matter i just have to find the wires to do it and now i'm hearing i need different dist entirely so the new dist will have the blu/grn an blu/yel wires to connect to from my c1 and c2 wires i ran??

Re: New!!! ECU CODE 4 (crank angle sensor)
yes, a dx distributor lacks 2 wires. A mpfi distributor has 2 more wires. 2 more wires 2 more fuel injectors.
