My grand am has been idleing all over the place. From 800 to 3500. Shut it off and restart and it goes to normal for a period of time then all over again. It refused to start so I coded it out and got Camshaft PS, the MAP and the TPS. I changed these now it will start if you pump the pedal but runs rough, exhaust gets hot (cherry) and it diesels when it shuts off. I swapped the comuter for one I had from A 2000 Grand Prix. Same drivetrain and options. I know that comp was good made no difference. Also while driving all electrical systems would fail ABS, Instruments, etc.. What do I do now???????????????????
