thanks I will give those a try.

Also check your spark plugs.

And if the prior owner said the maf is bad, it wouldn't hurt to test a different one to see the result.
I pulled the plugs and they where good, I have a SOHC MAF handy and have read that it will work fine plug and play?

The last owner didnt really have a clue. it was basically a "thats what a bad MAF sounds like"

thanks guys
