just drive it, the ecu needs to reset & learn, turn it off for a while then drive & repeat a few times, should fix it........

it normally takes 5 to 10 minutes. I dont recommend driving it while its doing its system checks.......

You may want to go back and make sure that none of the air or breather hoses came loose when you swapped the battery. Be sure all air hose connections are secure.

The learning part takes the few cycles. The reset part takes 10 to 15 mins, computer does a systems check and makes sure everything is wihtin its parameters. But I could be wrong.
