for a list of the codes and what they mean.

43 = Fuel Supply, 20 = Electrical Load Detector

You should really get the right ECU for your engine before you start troubleshooting. If you're using the lx ecu then the air/fuel maps will be incorrect for the z6.

The ELD in located in the underhood fuse box. Last time I checked, Honda doesn't sell just the ELD so you would have to buy the whole fuse box from the junk yard. Often the ELD will be fine, and the code can be caused by another problem in the electrical system. Are your headlights flickering at night? (common symptom of problem)

For the Fuel supply, how old is the fuel filter?

why would you try to rev over 3k when you have check engine lights? Maybe your ecu is trying to prevent you from destroying another engine. When you get the engine running correctly with no CEL's then you would be better off revving it high.

it just recently started doin this...and i havent since the check engine light came on....ony reason i found this out was because i was tryin to pass some one and was reving up to 3000rpm and it wouldnt go up higher it just stayed there....but the first engine i think was messed up when i got the car..i just recently got into the honda game

I suggest you get the right ECU first. Thats one of the reasons I haven't took my hatch out.
