horrible problem
 

I have a 1994 Honda Accord Ex it is throwing a crankshaft position sensor code but from what i understand it is in the distributor so i replaced the distributor and it is still throwing the same code but the car also wont rev above 3500 rpms and i just can't figure out why and i dont know how to fix it does anyone no what the problem could be

Did yourule outwiring problems (loose/dirty/corroded plugs) first?

RE: horrible problem
 

yea i have ruled out wiring problems i honestly think but i dont know maybe computer problem or it jumped time

RE: horrible problem
 

Yeah, check cam timing - thats not too hard to rule it out.

ECU is generally pretty robust so I tend to think of other stuff first.

what would cause the car to throw a CKP code

RE: horrible problem
 

Is the check engine light flashing? Limp-home mode >3500 rpm limit

RE: horrible problem
 

have you checked the obvious? the crank position sensor? If it's unplugged the engine will not start. it may be damaged or have excessive debris on/arounf it

RE: horrible problem
 

yes i checked the sensor and it is plugged in and when it is started the check engine light doesn't blink

RE: horrible problem
 

There are several crankshaft position sensor errors. What specific error code do you get from the ECU.

good luck

1994 is OBD-1 so I think theres only one CKP code (4).
