..should be OK once you get everything dried out.

I started it and it died right away. I disconnected the battery and will reconnect it after my workout to see if that does anybting. If it doesn't work afyer that's, then I have no more ideas and will probably bring it to the mechanic.

To clean the maf sensor, do I just spray the maf cleaner on it and let it dry?

does it sound like its surging and struggling to keep going? did you remove and reinstall your MAF sensor? check the direction of the arrow on the MAF sensor.

If your all dried out that car should start. I now think you have a vacuum leak, something isn't connected correctly. Or you upset something. Check all you connections again and check your plug to the maf sensor. Check your spark plug wires at both ends, check your fuel injector cables.

I took out everything I could, I cleaned it. That includes the MF, TB, MAF, and air intake. I literally had to scrub some of it because it was really baked on. The car does sound like it is struggling to stay on. It will seem fine for like 5-10 seconds and then quit. I didn't take the actual MAF sensor out, I just took the whole unit out and gently touched up the sides. I do wanna clean it though. Do I just spray the cleaber on and let it dry?

Check the vacuum hose on the back of the Intake Manifold,driver's side. Did you put the hose back in the center of the IM at the top?
