...what code is the check engine light giving you? This isn't rocket science, dumbass: just pull the code and fix the problem. We can't magically tell you what's going on if you keep this kind of information to yourself

This is why I'm scared of swapps.

It just adds som many more things to go wrong when things do go wrong.
