Yeah its not giving any codes that would affect the problem... I actually corrected the problem though... Now i have a vacuum leak... At least i think it is... When cranked it idles for a minute then it starts to rev to 1500 then back down... It stops when i pull the idle control... Think it might be the throttlebody gasket or the throttlebody plate... Really not sure... Going junkyard diving to grab a throtlebody in a lil bit

The only symptom is once the motor warms up it starts surging idol.. Stops when you pull idle air control... Turns out it was actually a issue aith throttlebody not being seated right... Which when i dealt with my tps screwed other stuff up causing my.misfire problem.. Only step left is to reset this ecu with the raindance it requires... So lame..
