It took me a while but I found the thread at Matthews:

You have done everything correctly, so far. Just a simple check: does the wiring for the CPS go over the rotor/cap or under? If the wires are too close to the plug wires, the stray electrons can mess up the CPS signal.

You just might have a bum CPS. I realize you got 2 new ones, but I would have prefered you having an OEM CPS. If there is a salvage yard, try a used one.

BTW, whenever I changed the oil on my 1995 850, I always ran through every port in the diagnostic boxes making sure the codes came up 1-1-1, except for B-2.
