about a year ago I was a dumbass and when replacing the battery I reversed the Terminals. It ended up burning up a 100 amp fuse and the ecu. I replaced the ecu with matching part number it runs again but won’t idle or move under its own power and runs really rich. I’m thinking it’s a MAF sensor but I don’t want to keep throwing money at! Any advice?

It won’t start or run without feathering the gas I should say

When a friend reversed the cables trying to jump my car it took out the MAF as well. I picked up another one with the same number (509?) from a junkyard from something else Mitsubishi for cheap.

I don't know how far Mason City is from Indy but if I still have my spare MAF out in the garage you can just have it. I'm running Speed Density now.
