I have a 1993 Loyale, 5speed, 2wd, wagon. 
The speedometer broke inside the tranny and it will be awhile before I can repair it. 
The Engine Check light remains on with code '33' all the time as I'm driving so I assume that the cpu is obtaining speed sensor readings to make adjustments to the engine. 
  
What kind of adjustments does it make based upon this input signal?  Leaner/richer fuel mix?  Timing advance?  Or . . . ? 
  
The manual doesn't explain such detail. 
  
I just wanto know what it's doing to my car when it thinks the car is going zero mph.
