Today, I filled up my car at the local Mobil station in the morning. This evening, I started up to drive home, got about half a block, and the CEL came on. Got home and checked it and it is a P0102 Hot Film MAF. I had this error previously so I purchased a new MAF (Bosch) from Pelican Parts. When I replaced the MAF, I did not remove the battery to reset the DME.

Should I clear the codes, reset the DME by pulling the battery, or should I look for other potential causes?

And could it possibly be bad gas or a carbon canister issue (i.e. potential overfill at the pump)?
