Default HELP!!Code 36 1989 Corvette

Can anyone tell me what this means? car runs great but if I shut it off hot it will just crank but not fire yup. I just put plugs in her and am going to change the fuel filter tomorrow but I can't find what a code 36 means. I clear it but it comes back in a day or so. Thanks everyone.

Code 36 is the MAF burn-off circuit for a 89 model.

Your 2 MAF burn off relays are right behind the battery. If you go to Autozone you get relays made in India. Get some OEM's. Unhook MAF in air intake line. If it runs well unhooked, its your MAF or relays.
