haha I dunno if getting a new engine is the way to go, a stop at a mechanics will get it up and going again i'm pretty sure.. I do have a questions though about the MAF.. if it were that how would he be able to test if it is working correctly?

I pretty sure that's where the wiring hooks into the MAF on the top of the housing.

well Diagnostic at any shop is gunna fall in the $55-75 range. But for starters you can try some of the suggestions stated here.. like testing the resistance with an OHM meter on your Mass Air Flow meter.

yeah I'm pretty sure your right... wasn't thinking that clearly also didn't think that when measuring resistance you don't have to have the source plugged in.
