Doubt its MAF. Check spark plugs/wires/distributor. Sounds more likely. O2 sensor maybe? Let us know.

o2 sensor will not cause a no start condition. Check your basics, do you have fuel? Do you have spark? Check your ECU for codes. Also make sure you have no intake leaks after the MAF.

well we got it started by drying off the spark plugs and then heating up the coil element on the inside of the distributor.. and checked fuel its a constant ful pressure even with the car running like crap.. so i will try new plugs and wires bc it looked as if i was good spark when i pulled #1 and put it to the manifold stud.
