Sounds like you need the code 34 chart to test the wiring, the chart is in this message: https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...hreadid=156516

You're welcome; you can usually find digital multimeters cheaply; in fact, I think even the neighborhood overpriced Radio Shack has a $10 digital meter now.
There's also the Digital Engine Analyzer, and the Sensor Probe (MAF testing) on discount here: http://www.sunpro.com/cgi-bin/web_st...?page=test.htm

the maf not working would cause my car to have poor acceleration, due to the car not knowing the correct air/fuel ratio right?
