I live in the Bay Area(so we're talking 40 degrees cold), and since my battery died (due to a month of vacation) a few weeks back, my car has not been driving well while the engine is cold. It is hesitating, keeping a low idle, and backfiring occasionally. From using the search function, I'm beginning to guess the MAF needs cleaning or replacing. Does anyone want to help a brotha out?
