removing the battery shouldn't clear the codes. U Check the fuel injector relay (up under the radiator cowling)?

I actually had the plugs laying across the head while testing for spark and got a nice little flame out the plug hole while crankIng so i guess fuel pressure is good. Haha

Unplug the MAF? I mean if you're getting fuel into the cylinder, and the spark plugs set it on fire.... It's not dead, it's merely a little confused.
