CEL code 18???

[Flippinjig]

I put a D15Z1 in my 95 Del Sol with the ECU and D16Z6 head that came in the car. It fired right up and seems to run good but the CEL is on. I flashed the codes by using a jumper and it has one long flash followed by eight short flashes. I'd say that is 18 but there is not an 18 listed????? I did have a broken wire on the top plug on the passenger fender but I fixed that. What do you guys think?

Any thoughts?

could it be code 10 and code 8?

I guess maybe it could be. It didn't seem to have a pause between the long and short flashes though.

I looked them up:
8= TDC sensor
10= Intake air temp
If these sensors were not working, would the motor still run smooth??

prob not

I reseated the plugs, pulled the back up fuse and checked again. This time it flashed one. I reseated the plug again, pulled the back up fuse and No CEL!!! Moral of the story is you have to get it plugged in real good to keep her satisfied.
