Default Begging for help

I have an 02 vette with a Maggie 112 on it car sat for a month battery died had to charge it then car ran like **** at idle and low rpm but above 3500 it runs great. The kicker is if you let the car temp get to 200 or 210 the miss goes away and it runs fine I thought bad gas but 5 tanks and sea foam and nothing has changed. Scanner shows no codes. Please. Any help would be appreciated. I'm lost.i was told to pull cables and reset the computer by touching cables but I wasn't sure it wasn't a joke

Check plugs, wires, and maf.

I would regardless: Change to NEW PLUGS, and NEW wires.

Reevaluate.

A lot of problems come up when a battery is weak. Drive into a battery shop and have them check the load capacity and alternator function.
