I recently replaced the optispark ac compressor new not rebuilt and water pump as well as plugs and wires, but now the car is hard to start and when I do start it and put it in gear it turns off unless I give it gas when shifting into drive, I also noticed a pinging sound when driving not sure if something came loose, I looked and don't see anything loose or broken.

Codes are= P0100 P0135 P0161 P0336 P0400 P1441

Any help would be great 

 

Thanks

For P1441, that usually means you have a defective purge valve in your evap system and need to replace it.

Most of your other codes are related to 02 sensors, airflow, and one for the camshaft position sensor. What I would do:

1. Clean the MAF sensor and throttle body

2. Replace the 02 sensors with OEM sensors

At that point, see what codes clear and what is left. Odds are your 02 codes, PCM code, and MAF codes will be gone. Then you can focus on what is left.
