Where is the MAF Burn off relay....?

My 1991 Trans Am is acting funny and I was told to find the MAF burn off relay. I removed the MAF sensor because I thought that was the problem, but the car didn't idle or run any differently.

It's one of those over by the master cylinder. You can pull one of the screens off the MAF itself, carefully clean the wire with a Q-tip and some solvent and see if it helps. The MAF sensor and circuit is pretty reliable on these cars. I'd suspect something else and really need a scanner to monitor the sensors to catch it. Not at all unusual for a plug in connector to get corroded and start giving bad readings and causing poor running.
