Replaced coils, spark plugs, cover gasket and clean all venos solenoid and now what the car does is starts hard and shuts off after few seconds. When I connect the MAF it turns off right away, but when disconnected it runs more thirty seconds before it shuts off.

Here is a guide to help us get started:
