throwing codes... tell me if i'm right...

[Insidious Surmiser]

threw a 24, 31, and 34... i've checked for boost leaks and fixed all that i found... now, the afm has always had problems in the plug area (it's been loose, and the connector on the inside of the afm has been snapped before... i'm gonna go ahead and assume that I should replace the afm... since all of these codes could possibly be the afm, and i've had problems w/ it before... also, if this is the issue, how poorly will this make my car run, as opposed to if it was functioning propperly

bench test the AFM first. don't throw parts at the car until you fix the problem, as it could be several things, and you'd just be wasting money, and NOT learning a lesson.

use the tsrm and bench test it:

alright, will do ... reason i say afm, is because i've had problems w/ it before, and i've ruled out almost every other posibility, but i'll go ahead and test it. thanks for the input

Of the top of my head all those codes are AFM related and likely caused by the bad connector. I agree 100% with shaeff but since the connector has already been busted I'd replace it anyway even if the AFM is working.
