Yes, car started fine - ran codes while running.
Hall sensor code: potential wire problem, but also "basic Distributor adjustment" per Bentley.
I guess it's possible that the Distributor has spun a little? Haven't removed it for years, since brass gear install.
I'll check out the wires first I guess.
Actually, I'm going to delete the codes, and drive it again and see what's left.

was the car running when you ran the codes?

Yup, correct rotor.
Faults read:
2322 - Inlet air temp
2221 - manifold pressure low/high
2113 - HALL SENSOR
2212 - throttle pot
Guess I'll go test the Hall sensor, etc.
And a few other things I need to look at I guess.
Wondering why, with several other codes, my check light has not been just on?
Or does it not work that way?
