Default Help Bought a used 1997 D16y8 Vtec civic with d16y7 motor

Bought a 1997 civic 2 door EX auto car(d16d8) with a d16y7 motor. Have invested 900 and would like to keep engine in car. Of course error code comes up P1259 and it wont idle good cold. What can I do now? Just a good used civic and want to keep it. Got a s2000 to hop up later but this is a good car otherwise. Thanks for any help!
