I have a 2000 Lincoln LS, that won't start. Here is the story. I had a check engine light on, so I changed to 93 gas and the light went off, Then the next week I had trouble starting it. I got it started took it to Lincoln and they say its my O/2 sensor and Mass Air Flow. but I decided to take it because it was starting without problem and I didnt want to pay 600 bucks on something I could replace myself. Anywho so it was running no problem for a week and 3 days ago it started again. It started 2 times but died imeadiatly, now I can't get it started. Heres the symptoms

Car turns over but wont start.
I tried to jump it.
I cleaned the MAF.
...
Anyone have any ideas I am thinking about replace the MAF. Any input would be great

if you took it to a dealer and they told you it was your maf and o2, I would start there, it could also be a bad fuel pump.

Check your fuel pump reset button in the trunk.
