Yeah if you put a Maf in the combustion chambers it just might cause a no start.

P.S More info is needed to properly answer your question

The Maf being bad?Yeah it could cause sputtering and very bad idle.

The ECU would probably panic and enter limp mode if the Maf was completely f***ed.

Clean the MAFS and make sure its wired correctly and try again.

If the problem still persists, get a known working MAFS and plug it to the engine and see the results.Once you have verified that it is or isnt the MAFS causing the problem troubleshoot the next item.

^ yay copy and paste!

MAF will still let the car start but not go over 2500rpm. Run REALLY rich. Gassy smell. I doubt what happened to your car is a maf problem.

CAS, fuses, lack of spark, lack of fuel, ECU issues.

Check the basics. Air, Fuel, Spark, timing, connections
