I ran the codes for the computer and got #1- Oxygen Content, and #9 Cylinder 1 Position. I looked in the book and found nothing. Any advice on what to do to fix these problems. Don't really have the money to take it to a machanic. Plus my husband used to be a mechanic, but he does't know what to do.

Code 1 is a fault O2 sensor circuit.
Code 9 is a fault with the # 1 cylinder position sensor in distributor and you can perform tests to find out if the circuit is bad within the distributor or if it is a fault with the wiring.
