yea thats what i figured. well ill see about gettin em after i pay you this week. well im off to pick it up wish me luck lol.
p.s. the mechanic said the code is a air flow sensor/mass air or maf i believe so i may need to replace it. he said he cleaned it and is gonna clean it again before i get there. so we'll see.

yea see what had happen was i typed Ken on my phone and it spell checked it to Kevin and i didnt notice til now 
UPDATE: well guys i picked up the max wedsnesday @ about 5pm paid the guy and i split like a banana
i noticed the gas light was on so i was worried i was gonna run out of gas before i found a gas station and well after i drove down 1 block the car stalled on me lol so i started it back up and moved a few feet than it died again the muffler sounded like it was under water gargling so i start it again this time i just said eff it and rev'd the hell out of it to keep it on til i made it across the street to the gas station. filled it up about half way, put air in my tire and voila car was up and running. so i headed towards Doughboys pad to chill and eat. and i made it home with no issues what so ever. but as doughboy says "knock on woodgrain"
Finally made it to DB's pad and well this is me having a lil fun pulling into Doughboys driveway (NO HOMO) lol
