JFP I completely agree with the vacuum leak theory, but in my case it COMPLETELY fixed these codes. A failed MAF can cause bad readings and make the car adjust improperly, which may lead to odd codes (rich, lean, etc).

I know it seems unlikely, but maybe that's why the people posting these codes on the Internet usually never report back.. they may be chasing the wrong thing.

In my case (only offering suggestions here) is the MAF completely fixed my problem and even fixed my cold start "hunt". Car runs 10x better with the new MAF.

While it's not a cheap part per se, the amount of time, effort, lost weekends, owing friends favors, etc that I put into checking "everything else", I would have much rather spent the $250 up front and chased from there.
