It's bad to run for very long with the MAF unplugged, but there's no harm at all in unplugging it and running a little while to see if it is the problem.
Help
Ok I give it so whirl. Also I started trying to take tha upper manifold off so I can do my plus and coils. Anyone knows how to disconnect the accelerator and speed control cables properly. The plastic clip looks very breakable.

Oil on the outside of the plugs, or on the inside?
What do you mean by "not fresh?" Is is dried, or is it damp?
Where the plugs wet with gasoline, or could you smell gasoline when you removed them?
What do the insides of the wells look like?
Help
There was dried up oil build up around the intake manifold gasket. When removing the plug and coils for cylinder 3 the plug was soaked in oil. Thinking maybe to change the intake and valve gaskets along with the coils and plugs. Wondering how this happened while the car was sitting for 1 1/2 months. I was due for a tune up but damn

i think its safe to say that the plug well didnt fill up while the car was sitting, motor has to run for pressure. no oil pressure, oil just sits in the bottom of motor.
i am thinking that is a good ideal

have you got it started yet?
so it cranks but won't fire?
Have you ever changed the fuel pump? If not you're due. Mine would crank and not fire - bad fuel pump. also check the fuel pump inertia switch position (driver left kick panel)and all fuses for fuel pump (passenger right kick panel, trunk), check relay for fuel pump, swap relay in trunk with horn relay, honk horn, if ok, then put them back.
Have you changed the IAC valve? If not you're due. Mine would crank, fire and die. - Bad IAC valve.
Have you checked for vacuum leak at PCV valve. Once rubber cracks open engine will die or not start. If you have not changed this part or the vacuum line then you are due.

The signs you see are typical of old, stale fuel. But for a month and a half, the fuel should be fine. I'd almost suggest fuel contamination.
Well guys after 4 days of doing the intake and replacing all coils and plugs and gaskets it started right up so the problem was 4 sparks plugs were bad and 2 were covered in oil but I'm happy its started thanx for all your help guys
