Not to be rude, but this is easily found with googling "Toyota OBD1 Codes". That said I'm nice and will tell you that code 12 is for missing engine speed signal, so something is wonky with your distributor. If you take your distributor cap off it'll probably look like copper spaghetti inside, that or your ignition coil is cracked. That's provided your wires, rotor & cap, and plugs aren't needing replaced anyway. If it's not having any other issues aside from flashing the code it's probably one of the more simple ones.
