Default 1994 accord ect sensor or ecu?

Hello peeps! Just bought me a 1994 accord, 2.2 vtec engine, and the 1st thing i noticed was the ce light was on, and it threw out a code 6, so i bought ect at napa, and it was fine for a while, but then the light came on again?. I dont think its the ect anymore, because the few days i had it, it would take a while to start the car, which it doesnt no more. I resetted the ecu by disconnecting battery, and later b4 i went to work it came on again. It seems to always do it when im warming up the car. The car starts fine, but i notice it takes awhile to warm up, like maybe 15m driving at 70mph on freeeway, is that weird? Also, whenever i turn car on, i hear like a buzz noise from the motor, but it goes away in like 3 seconds, what could it mean? By the way, its a manual, Please Help ^^

Is it giveing the same code ? It is unclear if the same code has returned, at least the way I'm reading this.

Also, don't take this the wrong way, are you sure you replaced the correct switch? The ECT is the two pin switch/sensor under the dist. The red arrow in the attached pic shows the location.

The buzz from under the hood, I'll guess that is the ABS pump. I'd check the fluid level in the ABS res and then think about bleeding the ABS unit.....assuming the car has abs
