Code 44 is usually an ignition signal fault and often associated with a miss fire, i would at the first instance have the code cleared and see if it re sets, if so we will look into it a bit further, as a precaution get the ignition electrical harness checked for any loose connections and corroded pins.

To early to jump to any rash conclusions, these problems must be fully diagnosed first, i would be considering an engine management / ignition problem is the most problem cause.
