Your code refers to an Acura vehicle but I would take it from the stalling and the code that it is possible that the crankshaft position sensor is failing. I suggest that you clear the codes and drive. When the light comes on again pull the code. Let us know what you find.

The same code is still there after clearing and driving. I know how to use an ohm meter. Can you tell me how to remove the timing belt cover to access the crankshaft position sensors? The manual I have isn't very helpful on that. Thanks!

After you take off the external belts, you need to take off the harmonic balancer (the main pulley on the crankshaft). Can be a fun job removing that thing. Once that is off the rest is pretty straight forward.
