hey guys i use the search button already this is a little different.... So the other day i changed my front crank seal and had to take apart the intake and disconnect the maf etc etc... to get to it. after putting everything back together my car runs crappy. my idle stays from 300 rpm to 600 rpm up and down and it dies at every stop unless i kick my gas pedal and then it would just bog up and down at times. And this is the weird thing this happens every time i remove my intake or do anything like disconnecting my maf but the problem goes away after driving my car after a couple of weeks. Back then i would check for vacuum leaks and use throttle body cleaner and etc... nothing works and no leaks and im like F it ima just drive it and maybe it will go away and it did after a week or two! BUt like i said it comes back after messing around the maf sensor area and this time it is worst than before. what do u guys think? bad Maf? bad connector? oh yeah this is like the 3rd time now that this had happen after doing anything with taking the intake apart. also my car feels alot weaker now. Thanks alot guys in advance.
