Car Wont start after battery change.

Iam guessing its the pfc cause i did some searches, but iam not sure what i should do? The car turns on and holds a very love like 300 or 500 idle for like 1 second then dies.

Most of the time when someone says: "All I did was this little change and now ... doesn't work!", it is because they hosed something else while doing the little simple thing.

Standard rule; check everthing in the vacinity of the simple change.

I have let the battery die out and recharged it numerous times on my FD... never had a problem.

I don't think it's because you messed with the battery in a direct cause-effect sense. If you are really worried about it, use your Commander or Datalogit to verify that all your settings in your PFC are still active.
