Clean the MAF sensor by removing it from the housing and spray with MAF cleaner or equivalent. Most auto part stores don't know where the correct DTC is located on the 94-95 GTs. It's in the engine bay on the passenger side strut tower towards the firewall. It's an OBDI system. The under dash port is for the 3.8L OBDII system.

Took it to O Reilly and had these codes come up. Dtc:539 and Dtc:542. He said one was some thing to do with the A/C and the other was fuel pump

Having a read on fuel pressure would help. May be as simple as a clogged fuel filter but the 542 code indicates an electrical issue in the fuel pump circuit. Check voltage at the fuel pump.

Could be a corroded ground at the ECU in the kick panel. Incorrect voltage can wreak havoc in these cars.

Got it fixed just to give The heads up on what is was. After changing just about everything under the hood turned out to be the vacum hose that goes to the lower intake had came off . So If anybody is having trouble with the car running rough check that hose first
