A TON of questions!

Clean the Throttle body and injectors. Check the air filter, and change the fuel filter. Then SeaFoam it.

I seen a write up for that and I think a vid too. that pin thing looks like a royal pain!!! i'll see if i can find it

solder on sensor wires is a no go where i come from.

beats butt connectors anyday, actually I can't think of a better way to splice wires than soldier and shrink wrap.

already cleaned out the throttle, Got a K&N airfilter, and seafoamed it. Seafoam is some good shit, use it in my oil, inject in through the vac lines, and in the gas tank. Probly need to change the fuel filter. Waiting till this weekend to solder the wire.

You really shouldn't splice or "repair" sensor wires. you should replace sensor wires in their entirety. Any other way is shotty work. ECMs send 5 volt voltage to sensors and then monitors the returned voltage. butt connectors, solder and smaller gauge wire than original wire will alter actual signal sent to ECM. Typically sensor signal readings are between 0.25v to 4.75v so the slightest amount of resistance will affect the ECM's solution. Seeing as though the input from the MAF is used to determine the fueling and timing. I'd rather be safe than sorry in taking the time to rewire the sensor than to add an unknown resistance value to the wiring whether it be a voltage drop of .01 or .9 or any value for that matter.

I just payed 110 dollars for a new battery today! Wallmart said they didnt carry the battery and if I got one it will void the warranty. Then I when to advanced, they wanted 135 for one! Then stoped at ORylies and they had one for 104, so I got it. I even talked him into giving me two free cans of seafoam for the amount I payed. Advance sucks nutsack, I really hate that place.

Welp fixed my problem. It wasnt the wire, the o2 sensors, or the mas airflow sensor. I didn't know there was a 10 amp fuse under the hood that said ECON! it was blown, replaced it and now it runs fine. Even the cruse works now. I feel so stupid
