'93 cutlass ciera 3.3 wont stay on after starting up

Hello, I have a '93 Cutlass Ciera 3.3. I just got a brand new mass air flow sensor, a new battery and a new starter. the car turns over just fine but then cuts off shortly after idling. before the starter went out, i had to wait for the car to warm up a little before i could drive it and it would drive great even during the beginning of this winter. its still winter and rainy and snowy and the car wont stay on long enough to warm up even with all this new stuff in it. what is the deal!!??

93' cutlass ciera 3.3 wont stay on after turning over

run the fault codes
not running indicates that the air/ fuel ratio is incorrect for the ambient temperature so you should be checking the ambient temp sensor /baro sensor and coolant temp sensor

Wont stay on

Sounds like your "Idle Air Control (IAC) valve is not working to raise RPM when engine is cold.

It is possible that the wires to the IAC were not reconnected when the MAF sensor was replaced.

It is also possible that another sensor, like engine temp sensor, was not reconnected after the work. Look carefully in the area around and under the MAF.

All else fails, the IAC is bad and needs to be replaced.

My 1990 oldsmobile cutlass ciera wont start at all and its not showing a code

Sounds like your coolant temp sensor went bad, it is in or around gooseneck /intake area 2 wire plug yellow/brown if I remember right this regulates fuel according to temperature so basiclly it tells ecm how much fuel to send to throttle body for how cold it is out. these go bad and cause a -40 *F which pours raw fuel down intake thus flooding,
