1988 camaro will not run longer then a couple seconds with mass airflow sensor plugged in. Unplugged the car runs fine I have replaced the mass airflow sensor and I'm having the same problem.

Only engine modifications are headers and exhaust. 350 tpi

Have you checked your TPS sensor adjustment ?

Also MAF power or MAF burn off relay could be bad

Just changed the power relay and cleaned the burn relay stays running but not well 1000 rpm to just under 500 over and over again. Could it be a vacuum issue? Check engine code is 33 and 34 if I read the code right
