If you remove any part of the coolant system, or drain the coolant at all, then there is likely air in the system, so re-bleed the coolant system before taking it out for a drive.

Got the CEL that came up yesterday but today no more CEL.

Checked the code and here they are

P2102
P0304 Pending
P0336

I know the P2102 is a Throttle Actuator Control Motor Circuit Low
The P0304 is a pending misfire !?
The p0336 i have no idea

Can anyone help me sort these out and any idea on how to fix these and if they could have cause thew lack of power, etc ...

Also when i started it this morning the car was doing some backfires .... WTH could that be !? Low compression !?
P2102
Take your throttle body off. Re clean with throttle or carb cleaner. Then look at the connection points where the electrical clip goes. Inspect throughly. If appears dirty get a clean tooth brush (cheap soft bristle) and contact cleaner. Clean those prongs. Clean the connector also. Check the wires to make sure they appear to still have original integrity. This may or may not solve that.

P0336
ESS sensor. Clean this. Unclip it, remove if possible and clean. Clean the ground under the air box also.
Perform 20 brake stomp.

Clear memory by disconnecting battery and pressing on brakes for about a minute then reconnect the battery.

Start car let idle for 15 minutes do not touch throttle.
