[Shotimes] Intermittent stalling after battery replacement?

[Adam Phillips]

I had some woes a few days ago after replaceing my battery. Just for kicks, 
check your DIS module, thing on the battery side of your intake. One of my 
connectors was ever so slightly unlatched, causing a no spark, and obviously 
no start/run conditon. Just somthing simple to check. I would also just go 
over all your connectors under the hood just to check for somthing simple 
you know? One other spot you might want to check, is where the positive 
cable meets your fuse box, up at the firewall, drivers side, make sure those 
connections are clean and tight, and any other connections and/or grounds. 
Also, do you know what those codes point to?
