1995 honda accord 2.2 vtec coupe
CEL is on, codes 6, 9, 12 after I took off the distributor
I recently removed My distributor to access a deteriorated hose, I failed to mark it but it started up fine, realized My mistake and stopped driving it, now when I start it it struggles extremely hard and sounds like only two cylinders are firing for the first 15-30 seconds then goes back to normal. I'm having a hard time finding how to fix it and I've heard the magnet should be facing the 1st cylinder? I'll add pictures below, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Reason: Car description
The codes you have are for the engine coolant temp sensor, #1 cylinder position sensor (in the distributor), and EGR lift sensor. Since those items are in the area you worked on, make sure you got everything plugged back in. I don't think there are electrical connectors that could be accidentally swapped, but I'm not 100% sure.
