O.k. guys new to the board here and the Honda scene. I just picked up a 92 Prelude with the 2.3 and a 5 speed. Very nice clean car. No rust or dents, has a 108K on it. I did a full tune up: cap, rotor, plug wires, and plugs. But the CEL light is on, and the car has a surging idle. It also it sounds like the rotor is grinding agaist the cap. Checked the dist. shaft and it seems to have a lot of play in it.

Now for my questions.

1. How do I flash the codes on this car. I believe there is a plug somewhere that I have to insert a jumper wire into and count the flashs on the check engine lightl. But where is the plug at on this car. I can not seem to find it.

2. How do I check the timing on this car. I suspect the dist. is going bad and want to see if I am getting an usual timing readings.

I did a search on the forum but could not seem to find the specifics on what I am looking for. So any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
