Where's my car? · 03-20-2008, 06:44 PM

So today i cleaned my MAF for the 20th time, and when i ran the engine after resetting the battery and ecu, the engine sputtered and idoled for a long time. NORMAL after restarting the system?

i heard from a mechanic that the idoling comes from air vacuum leaks. IF so where is this vacuum tube located? I also heard like this vacuum sound coming from the middle of my engine which made me think.. "maybe its not my MAF".. or is it? any clue THANKS
