what specifically did you replace for the tune-up?
did you disconnect the battery while working on the car?
i did disconnect the battery. i had to replace a torn spark plug tube gasket. it was leaking oil and causing the plug to be wet with oil which caused a misfire code. put everything back together like it originally was. went to start it and nothing. it acts like the battery is drained and it will not let me shift into any gear with the key turned in the on position. i know it may be some kind of electrical or relay issue.
I would check that your intake tubing is all connected properly and that your mass air flow (MAF) sensor is connected and working properly. this is a sensor in the end of the intake tube by the air filter box. Also make sure your throttle position sensor (TPS) is connected and that your throttle body is clean and not sticking. Just take the tube off and open and close the throttle body with your finger. if it’s kinda rough to open or close and/or it sticks at any point (it should close all the way on it’s own), then it would be a good idea to spray and wipe it down with a good throttle body cleaner
