I went to target parked my car.
Everything was normal.

Trying to turn it on. But the car turns off a second after it starts.

I tried to press on the gas and it died even when pressing the gas.

Plz help. Im stuck here.
 




I tried to pull the map sensor. It turned on but very rough so i turned off after 2 seconds.
Whats going on there

The map or the MAF, the maf is ontop of the throttle body.

I would say if it ran, then that might be the issue, because before it wouldnt run for more than a second.
 


Ok i pulled the maf out. The car runs good.
What should i do now.?

Btw rpm go up and down a bit.

Can i drive it? Or something will happen?

If it runs good with it unplugged, just drive it like that to get it home, don't beat on it or get up to speed really fast, just go easy on it going home. Likely you will need a new MAF sensor.
 


Nothing can happen really, the car uses the MAF sensor to determine fuel and air flow into the motor, when its unplugged the computer already has a whole file full of numbers to go off of incase the MAF sensor were to ever fail. Its not completely correct on what really going on, but it has enough data to run the car just fine.
 
Air intake sounds bad. Like its sucking air. And i got a check engine light.

Thats the code
