Sputtering and difficult start -- then OK 850 1996

Always good to remember "limp home mode:" with key off, disconnect MAF, if car starts and runs acceptably, there's your problem. Key off again, then plug it back in to confirm diagnosis. You probably don't want to go far in limp home mode, though :-(
