    Ok so I have 2000 GTP with 160k and I decided to do the LIM gasket replacement a couple weeks ago. Everything went pretty smooth car ran great for about for about a day then the trouble began.

    Problem 1: I threw a p0101 maf malfunction code. Ok no problem threw another maf in that I had sitting around code went away.

    Problem 2: I then threw a p0443 evaporative emission system purge control valve circuit malfunction. I havent really looked into this one yet.

    Problem 3: The other day on a cold morning I started to drive my car and it stalls at a stop sign. It starts then dies a few more times. Finally I get it warm and no problems after that. I get home throw the scanner on it and its throwing a "pending" code p0101 maf sensor malfunction!Now what are the chances that both sensors are bad? This code I deleted and hasnt shown up again yet but its been only a fe hours sense I deleted it.

    Problem 4: On my way to work the other day i stepped on the gas at a light and noticed my rpms real high before shifting. It was hitting 4k before the trans would shift. So I put the scanner on again and now throwing a "pending" code p0121 tps malfunction. Should I replace the tps?

    Oh and on top of all that my boost indicator thats on the dash is not working at all. I step on it and no bars on the gauge. I still have to look into that.

    Im hoping that some how all these problems are related and can be fixed. Should I start replacing sensors and hope this fixes the problems? Please any help or input would be great!!
