Ok the other day Im riding and everything is fine and I shut my car off go to try and start it again and it just wont start?? I can turn the car over for about 30 seconds and it will eventually crank but it runs terrrriibbbllee!! I ohm'd my mass air flow sensor and it checks out.. Its only really bad on the low end but once I rev on it a few times it clears up but If I let out the gas it will just shut off.. its very wierd.. Im also getting code 41 on the ECU (FOR THE 87 model this is fuel temp sensor circuit) I dont think this will make it this hard to start.. so if anyone has any ideas please chime in and help me solve this problem.. thanks in advance!

I believe the fuel temp sensor can cause a rich condition, are your plugs fuel fouled?
