I recently had my fuel pump replaced and to do so, the battery was
disconnected. This messed up my computer and now the car won't even idle on
it's own. It also kicks and surges and the RPMs are everywhere on the dash.
I've tried everything to reset the computer. Does anyone have any
procedures or ideas to reset it? Thanks.

It should be in open loop mode I would think. Try driving it for a bit
and see if it re-learns its settings.
