flubuyu2,
Looks like you have a problem with the opti-spark, faulty high or low resolution pulses.......?

The opti supplies two timing inputs to the PCM. A high & a low. The PCM compares the two & can determine if one is not being received. Seems like your opti is
failing or perhaps a bad connector?

Code 36 relates to the high resolution signal.

Code 16 would relate to the low " ".
