Hello everyone, my 1998 honda civic has been in limp mode and won't pass 3500 rpm. It's throwing the code p0335 which is the crankshaft position sensor, I brought it to a mechanic and we changed the crankshaft position sensor with a duralast brand as well as the timing belt, but it's still stuck in limp mode and still throwing the code p0335

I also tried replacing the ecu and still no luck.

About 2 months ago I changed the distributor because it was misfiring, but after I changed the distributor the misfiring stopped and then my car became limp mode.

Car specs:
1998 Honda civic Dx
Automatic
d16y

Not sure what I should do next, please help. Thanks

Your 'mechanic' has no real service information? The sensor by the crank pulley is not CKP.

You all need to understand that 3 different sensors are inside the distributor, one of those is CKP.

So limp mode and P0335 happened as soon as the distributor was replaced?
You don't see a connection here?


FWIW aftermarket distributors are crap.

I was thinking about that it had to do with after replacing the distributor, but since it was throwing a p0335 code I wasn't too sure. I'll take it back to the shop and tell him about it.
