Hi Tour,

Thanks for the advice. If I pull the electrical connections from the MAF, would that answer the question without reseting the PCM first? If the problem doesn't get any worse, then the MAF is bad or dirty.

The strange thing, i disconnected each spark plug wire one at a time and ran the engine, and each time engine idled rougher and revved in an ugly manner, much worse than the condition now. So I assumed the wires and plugs are ok, unless one or more of them are just slightly bad.


Did cleaning or replacing the MAF improve any hesitation probs on any of your Tours? Or did the prob end up being plugs/wires?

Thanks again!
