Remove all the plugs from the engine if you have compress air, dry out each cylinder, put new plugs back into the engine. If you have starting fluid, give it a shot after the MAF, not before or else you have a chance of ruining the MAF. Give it a crank and let her rip.

Thanks for the quick response. Any idea why this would happen out of the blue though? The car was on the lift for almost 2 weeks as I was working on the transmission. Anything not connected properly (O2 sensors perhaps?) after the transmission install could cause this?


Cheers,
