Default LT1 trouble starting.!.!

Hey whats up everyone i just recently bought a 97 z28 and was working great till i came back from a friends and tryed to start it. It takes about 8 secs for it to start up. I pulled out some codes and gave me the MAF and idle control mtr but im thinking it might be the fuel pressure regulator. any ideas what it could be

Start by cleaning off the MAF sensor with electrical cleaner or windex. Pull the negative battery cable for an hour, then drive the car normally for 24 hours. Start better now?
