That engine sounds like an old flathead V-8 that has a distributor half full of water -
OK, so you don't have a distributor. -
You mentioned that you have had to charge the battery several times. What kind of voltage to you get at the battery without the car running? The battery sounded weak.
What trouble codes are being thrown at you? If you don't know, I suggest you invest in a code reader.
Since the engine hasn't "blown up", I reckon there is a massive fuel delivery or massive spark malfunction.
Let us know what you find out.

The routine maintenance happened as a result of the failure. The guy that sold me the thing assured me up down left and right (but not in writing) that the car had been meticulously cared for. Only invested in the new MAF after getting P0102. And as far as the battery goes after the failure it was seen to be bleeding. Not sure if this was a cause or result of the failure. Thank you for your comments, will keep you updated
