camshaft sensor is in distributor(requires dist. replacement) crankshaft is behind lower timing belt cover

You didn't post the size of motor so please use the one that is for you:

2.2L (F22A1) ENGINES
Install the timing belt, around the pulleys, in the sequence shown

my car was doing the exact same thing and i spent about 18 hrs total trying to figure out. if you remove the oil filter, you will notice that the "bracket" that the oil filter attaches to is removable. remove the ENTIRE oil filter assembly. there is a bolt almost behind the crank pulley, its tricky to get to but you can get to it with a 1/4 in drive, swivel, and extension, i do believe it was a 10-12 mm socket (MUST BE ^POINT SHORT WELL) the top left bolt on the assembly you will notice that you can not get out. that is fine, take the rest of the bolts out and let the assembly hang from that bolt, BUT the bolt must me loosend all of the way to achive play in it. take a small screw driver and "break" the seal on the assembly. you will notice 2 holes. around those two holes is a single gasket. even the smallest crack will aloow oil to drip. my car was using about a gallon of oil every ten miles, so you can imagine how much oil i when through, replace the gasket. You can not get the rubber gasket ANYWHERE except a honda dealer. replace. put it together and you all set.

BASIC STEPS: RAISE PASSENGER SIDE.
REMOVE TIRE
REMOVE OIL FILTER
REMOVER ASSEMBLY
REMOVE GASKET
AND REPEAT BACKWARDS FOR INSTALLATION

Cable is probably kinked or slipped adjustment. There are 2 cables connected to the knob. One move the blend door in the heater box to make the air flow thru the heater core, and the other cable opens a valve in the heater hose (engine compartment) to let the hot engine water into the heater core. Check both cables for kinks and fix and kinks. It is still doesn't work, first disconnect both cables at the blend door and valve and check the door and the valve for proper operation (can you open and close them by hand?--if not, these must be repaired or replaced), then, if good, adjust the cables according to this procedure from autozone.com:
