are you sure, i have never heard of this code

you sure it didnt say CKP sensor, meaning crackshaft postion sensor

which is located by your pulley on the back of the block
you can check to if its unpluged, split wires, or you need to replace the sensor

It's inside the distributor. It's not removable from the distributor. It's rarely the wiring unless someone tampered with it. Which would be weird since there's almost no reason to ever touch that wiring. Make sure you set your ignition timing properly.

The sensors inside the distributor are in fact replaceable from what I have read, but the parts are simply not sold individually.
