I just bought my uncle's 2002 Red Z06 about 4 months ago. He lves in MO and I drove it back to NC. So I've put about 8k miles on it with that trip and just driving around. I've already had the column lock problem almost 2 months ago, now I'm having another problem. I'll try to make it quick. Fri night the check engine light came on. About 2 miles down the road I pulled into Wal-Mart and it started idling rough and then just died. It wouldn't start so I had it towed (for the second time) to a friends house. The next morning it started up but it was still running rough. I drove it around the block and noticed when I came back it was running extremly rich. I pulled off the Mass Airflow Sensor with the intake and there was a little oil in it. (I also smelled fuel in the oil). The code it threw was for the MAP Sensor so I changed that with no luck. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Dude, Wrong forum - you might want to re-post in the C5 section. C6 is 2005 through current.
Good Luck

You don't have an over-oiled K&N air filter do you? PVC valve working?

Yes PVC valve is working but I don't know if the filter is over oiled. I got it about 2 months ago and havent messed with it since.
