Anyway, why I asked was due to the fact that I experience issues at idle under load. If I do not see (or I am just believing I do not...) issues elsewhere, I was trying to justify MAF issues and related. If the MAF was filthy, clogged, wouldn't it exhibit problems elsewhere?

Vacuum leak - under load/higher rpm, small leak would not be noticeable, so this one makes sense as well.

ICV - it's responsibility is idle only.


Just "brainstorming".
Old and very wise rule of automotive trouble shooting:
Always go with the simplest things first.
Then work your way up the diagnostic tree.
So.....
Vacuum test is the simplest of the three in my list you just need a vacuum gauge.
MAF sensor is next.... you can unplug it then take the car for a drive and see if the issue changes.
Wiring can be tested with a Multi Meter.
Last replace the ICV..
Simple.
