I cleaned my motor today with degreaser and water and now it runs pretty bad. I am going to scan it in a few. I suspect the VSS as one of the problems but I am sure there are others. It revs pretty high and sometimes it will come out of third and rev up. If anyone has any input I would really appreciate it.

Here are the codes, I just scanned it so I haven't had time to look up all of them. I will clear it tomorrow and see what pops up again.

KOEO: 335 & 522

Memory Codes: 189, 212, 214, 336, 634, 659 (have never seen that one)

Also not sure if it means anything but I couldn't get my scanner to perform the KOER test.

So today I pretty much disconnected every connector under my hood and dried everything with my compressor and reconnected everything. Alot of the codes went away but the 2 that I have 522 & 634 (I think they are related) are what is making my car shift like crap. The only problem is I am not sure what the sensor is called, I think it's called the transmission range sensor or position sensor switch. Does anyone know the correct name for this.

I drove mine for about 2 days and over 100 miles and I am pretty sure i messed up some sensor that is related to the transmission.
