Ok, so the scanner only picks up one code, a P0102, when it should pick up everything else, I know I have O2 sensor codes and EGR code, but thats all it picks up at the moment. I unplugged it then tried starting it and nothing happened. DOC, did you ever get your car to starT?

Not yet. But I will. I'm not sure about the MAF, but perhaps you could try posting this in the Tech Talk area and see if those guys have some insight for you

When you say that nothing happened, do you mean literally as if the battery were dead, or does it crank but not catch? Have you checked the condition of all your fuses and verified that each plug wire from the coil packs actually goes to the proper cylinder?

Nothing happened as in it didn't have spark, it cranked. Coils are in the right spot, checked fuses too

Have you tried disconnecting the battery for a minute and then reconnecting it? Are the posts clean?

Fixed,,!!!!! One of the intake plugs was switched, as soon as I switched em it started fine. I broke 2 of the cylinder spark plug connectors tho and gotta get some new ones. Also my home made coolant hoses leaks bit at least it starts and droves fine
