Default Check Engine Light

I just had a tune up, dizzy cap, spark plugs, fuel filter. And about a day later engine light comes on. I try to pull the code but it keeps flashin 9 times. Thing is the engine light comes up only when the car is warmed up. when its cold doesnt come up. Anyone know what it could be?

#1 cyl position sensor. its in the distributor and for the most part not reaplacable. check your distributor wiring plug too see for any loose connections.

if the problem is not caused by a loose wire then you should be fine. try resetting the ecu first and see what happens.
