Thank for the quick response! I tried unplugging the MAF today and let it idle and it seemed to idle pretty steady without any surges. I plugged it back in and idled kind of wacky again, steady at times and surging at times. I think the MAF is flaky at best and the computer is probably a little confused from the unplugging and plugging.


I'm thinking to go ahead and replace the MAF just to eliminate it as a possible cause and go from there. Regarding MAFs, some research says only replace it with the Bosch MAF like one one that is installed and other places I have seen the remanufactured ones from Napa or whatever will work fine as well. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
John
