What MAF sensor did you install? Does the transfer function match the stock TF? If it doesn't, you'll probably need a chip / calibration which includes the proper sensor characteristic curve for the MAF you just installed. If you still have the stock MAF, you could try putting that one back in and see if the idle problem goes away - assuming that it ran fine with the stock unit.

Could you explain your "idle" problems is it surging, is it dying after starting, what exactly is the problem? Also did you do the "IDLE" reset procedure as you changed parts that require this.

Ignore that it is the "stock" throttle body in the picture but the procedure is the same for any.

I just got a 95 that's idles pretty low around 750 and dies sometimes, mainly when cold. Should this be the first thing I should check out?
