They are MAF codes, so would check the connector for that  :y

all plugged in and connected. Light stillon. car will go for a bit before stalling and not restarting, I guess from over/under fueling. Next step try a new MAF then is it?

It was OK so check the MAF connector, bent pins? broken wire?
Did you drop the MAF?
Have you put it back the wrong way up?

I remember someone saying that there are two plugs that can get swapped over, cant see it my self if the loom is OK / unmodified but worth a second look.

nope, didn't drop the maf or even remove or unplug it as it was just held out the way (disconnected pipe from air box, removed bellows and lifted air ram out the way) while i put the new rad in and dropped the fan back in.
