replaced the MAF with a remanufactured from o'reileys and no change. still have same symptoms. just ordered a reman. cumputer from them that should come in wednesday. if thats not it then maybe its the timing belt or cam gears, then maybe its the valve train.

the car clatters slightly when i turn it off like it is a timing issue, but still troubleshooting. could there still be a fuel problem with the regulator or the injectors even though fuel pressure is correct? i checked the injectors using the screw driver to the ear method, they're clicking, but thats all i know.

jeesh!! cant wait till i figure this out. its incredibly frustrating driving around with 88 hp.
