Yeah sounds like the TDC wires are backwards.

I thought a code 9 meant that the TDC sensor wasn't wired right? My CRX, Throws a code 9 because the copper wire thats supposed to be around the TDC sensor came apart.
I could be wrong, But I suggested checking the distributor for copper wire wrapped around the shaft. Might aswell check the wiring on that aswell.
