    This thread needs a grammar and proper sentence composition mod.

    I'm going to try to translate this to english:

    I have a 2001 Grand Prix SE with a 3.1L engine that had 280,000 miles. The engine smoked alot, so I got another lower mileage car to motor and trasmission swap. After the motor swap, my check engine light engaged and I received 8 codes, including Crank, Cam and MAF low voltages.



    Based on the codes and generally vauge description, I'm going to say something isn't right with your PCM, or you forgot to plug in your wiring harness.

    With the limited amount of info given ( and the inability to at least make an effort in grammar, punctuation and sentence structure ), it is about the equivalent of someone asking " Car leak oil....You tell me where from? ". So anytime I see one of these posts with little to no info, my response is going to be " I think he has an oil leak ."

    I won't disagree with that logic.
