Either way, I have ordered a new air filter and new MAF sensor and will be installing both once received by next week. I have a feeling that my problems will still exist, but that will be ruled out. Any comments are appreciated.
Hi,

Without a MAF (or a malfunctioning one), unplugging it should have the exact effect you experienced. Replace the MAF and I bet you're good to go...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
