Re: 88 gta maf sensor
In that case...Your ECM would not be getting a correct reading of the incoming air.
What does it do with the MAF in place when you try starting? It could be fuel or spark. What steps have you tried to narrow your issue down? If the car is runing fine after warming up, that points towards the cold start injector/closed loop side of the system.
