Well guys, I took my MAF off and did a resistance check, I tried to take off my TPS but I could only get one screw out so I just put the screw back in and decided to not mess with it. I get in my car and its still not idling but their is a new problem to add to the list, Not only will it not idle but when you hold your foot on the gas to idle it say at 700 RPM or so, the idle decided to jump all over the place, and also when you let the RPM go below around 600 it will just shut off. It is almost impossible to drive now. Also if the MAF is the issue, I cant replace it because one of the screws stripped. What do I do now?

***UPDATE***
So with my car still not idling at all I decided to start throwing money at it till it worked, I bought a new MAF and IAC. I hooked the MAF up and nothing changed except that I managed to break one of the screws off and strip the other one (I have the worst luck with those stupid screws). I moved on to the IAC, I hooked it up and BAM! IT WORKED!!! before I changed the IAC it wouldnt turn on at all without my foot on the gas and after I hooked up the new one it idled perfectly! It was idling really high though, about 1500RPM so I unhooked the battery to reset the ECU and now all is well, It now idles about 1200 cold in park and about 800 in drive when warmed up. Thanks for all the help guys! I will chime in again in about a week or so to let you guys know if its still idling like it should.

Well guys as you can probably guess, I'm keeping her. During the few weeks it was parked, I had the opportunity to drive around a loaded 2012 ram 3500 and a 2012 BMW (We ended up trading the Vette). While driving those it felt like something was missing, that soul, that character,that something that we all love and cherish about our SC's. I truly did miss my SC, It gave me a taste of what it would be like if I sold it how much I would miss it. I have spent countless hours on here reading forums and I realized that we have a since of community that is very rare within the car scene and for that I would like to thank all of you,I seriously couldn't have done this without you guys.

The SC is surely to become a rare and collector car yet. Like OLT mentioned in the SC doctrine thread, SC's are enthusiasts vehicles.
