Probably a generic code pointing at the MAF sensor...only later model cars have MAP sensors that I'm aware of. What's your car doing? Is it bucking and letting our fowl air? If so, try unplugging your MAF sensor to see if it at least idles properly. If so, then you need a new MAF sensor. That would be my guess.
