another maf problem, ran fine earlier today..

So real quick, just boosted her a month ago, runs fine minus a couple electrical issues but nothin major, today i went to leave and my car wouldn't start, evuen tried to pop start it, nothing..that's when i see the trail of fuel I'm leaving, pop the hood and see the line on the end off the fuel rail popped off, go to fix it and see this:
The ground on the top side of the 5mt that connects to the chassis had like burnt up and had melted in the past, figured that may have caused some issues so i ran a larger gauge ground wire from the tranny to the chassis. In doing so, as an idiot would do,i arced it on the starter just enough to grab my attention. Hooked everything up and tried to start her but nothin,come to find she's runnin super rich and won't idle via wideband. Look at the safc, air flow is 0.00. Pulled the z32 maf out and everything looks fine, she ran fine earlier. I thought maybe i effed my jwt ecu but if i did that and the maf is good, i would still be able to see the percentage on the Safc. Idk what to check next,. Any ideas? I don't want to buy i new maf if not necessary so any input would be greatly appreciated!
