Default MAF Burn off relay/system

My 87 is setting a 36 code. I replaced the MAF relay and cleared the code only for it to return. I look through my manual and in it also indicates to replace the power relay. So I looked around on the vendor site's and no one lists a power relay for any year after 86. Question is there a power relay for the 87 and if so what is the part/catalog number I can use to obtain it? Second if there is not a power relay what could it be? Could the new MAF relay be bad? Or is there something else in this circuit that could set this code? Thanks in advance.

Both relays are the same and both are behind the battery

Both relays are behind the battery, and are the same part.

If you replace both and the code still sets, its the MAF itself.
