clean MAF perhaps ?? running without filter for a short while probably can get enough dirt on the sensors...

i'm gonna need a DIY on how to clean the sensor or the MAF (don't know what that is)

i forgot to mention... is there any way you can get an ODBII reader, and check the error code?

I had a lot of problems with my car when I went to replace the header. Have someone read the code for you, just in case it is something serious. I ended up having to buy replacement plugs. (Bought the nicer ones for only about $3 to $4 more a piece) It was a PAIN to get them in and out. Better to be safe than sorry. The MAF sensor sounds about right though. Make sure it is plugged in all the way, too. Can't hurt.
