yeah i dont think thats it then, because they replaced the battery so that would have reset the ecu right there since it was unplugged for a while right?

it could be a number of different things wrong with it or it could be something very simple, if you don't have the tools to diag it I would take it to someplace that does.

RT/Tuning is right around the corner from blue bell, they could have it running right in a jiffingtin!

x2! Worth the $$$!!!

sometimes it is just as simple as something basic, atleast you didnt waste money on the tune that wouldn't have helped.
