SO I WAS HAVING IDLE ISSUES AND REPLACED IAC, TPS,MAF. PUT HEADRRS ON SO RIGHT NOW THE ONLY THING I DONT HAVE IS THE 02'S IN YET..WHEN I HOOKED UP THE NEW MAF, THE CAR DOESNT IDLE GOOD AT ALL. IT WIL CUT OFF WHEN I DRIVE IT ..AND WILL BARELY STAY CRNAKED.. WHEN I UN HOOK THE MAF IT IDLES BETTER STILL LOW IN THE 600RPMS. BUT I CAN ACTUALLY DRIVE IT.. WHATS CAUSING THIS, OR HOW DO I FIX IT..

NO VACUUM LEAKS, IVE SEARCHED EVERYWHERE AND CANT SEE ANY.WHAT ELSE SHOULD I LOOK FOR OR WOULD CAUSE THIS?????
