I don't think E30s have a MAF.

If you want help you need to give more information. eg. what engine have you got?

As BenHar says, E30 engines have AFM, not MAF.

Don't know what engine you have, but if disconnecting the AFM lets it fire, then it's a rich or lean running issue. This is usually caused by an air leak (a split in one of the rubber hoses) or a failing engine coolant sensor known as the Blue Plug.
