Any other symptoms? Rough idle, slight hesitation during acceleration?

It's possible the MAF could be dirty. Pretty easy to clean and just as easy to replace. Use the search function as there's several threads.

Search "maf removal."

I know there's probably at least 20 threads that tell you how to do it.

I have original MAF, 12 Yrs.
Clean it every few years.
Not a prob.

Here's a link to an instructional I put together some while ago.
