A 1989 Ford Escort would not be getting fuel if the fuel pump has failed or the filter is clogged. A local mechanic or dealership can diagnose and repair the problem.

Does the car start? because if it doesn't... then your fuel cutoff has been tripped, likely by the car getting hit closer to the gas tank and tripping the cutoff valve. if it's anything like the cutoff in a '91 escort, you should be able to take off the small panel access in the trunk/hatch and reset the switch, if it's the same, it's pretty easy

Can you bypass a mass airflow sensor on a 1991 ford escort gt 1.8 litter dohc?

You can't and you shouldn't. The MAF signals the computer how much air is going to the engine. The computer adjusts the amount of fuel going through the injectors. If you were to by pass it, you would either be getting no fuel at all or be getting the maximum amount of fuel. Either way it would be bad for the engine.
