Thank you Skip, I really appreciate the advice. I did clean the MAF and installed a new air filter. Then the weather turned really crappy and I have not had a chance yet to test drive it. Tomorrow should be my first opportunity.

I'm a little worried that maybe it wasn't the MAF only because the MAF looked clean at least with the naked eye. But I did clean it with the electronic parts cleaner so I hope that does it.

It funny how the PCA.org site can be inconsistent with their Tech advice. I saw one Q&A answer dated 2004 where the Tech said never clean a MAF that will not fix a dirty MAF. Then in 2006 the same Tech answered the could my MAF be bad question with "try to clean it first with electronic parts cleaner, that that often fixes the problem."

They also told me No 19" wheels they will rub your wheel well liners through. And again, the folks here with 19" wheels and the same year Box as mine disproved that advice.

I'm gald I have you all as a check & balance. Thanks!
