I have had in repair shoppe couple of times-- just replaced the MAF sensor and things seemed much better for couple days- Son was driving home and just quit- thought it was out of gas, put in some gas - did not improve. Starts won't idle- runs rough and noticable blue smoke- never has done this before- warning light states "traction off"

Check to make sure the MAF hasn't come disconnected. Also, make sure there are no major vacuum leaks. Finally, check the catylatic converter to make sure it isn't plugged.
