Default Help, MAF maybe?


My car started shacking and the check engine light started blinking then it was solid then blinking again. I thought maybe it was the MAF, but when i take the MAF out the car does not run, last year this happened to me but when i took the MAF off i was able to run the car, but not this time, can it be something else? when the car is shacking the RPMs go up and down by it self.
give me your opinions guys, other wise im stuck at work.

thanks

you need the maf to run the car because your pre 00 with no map sensor. blinking cel is a miss fire. check the codes
