Simptoms of a bad MAF sensor???help!

Take it to Autozone and have them run codes that way you know exactly whats wrong. Instead of just changing parts hoping it fixes the problem. And one symptom is bad idling moves up and down.

A bad MAF will cause the CEL to come on and sometimes will go out. Mine when it went bad would run crappy until it got up to temp and then was still choking the car at take off from a stop. Since the MAF tells the ECU how much air is coming in, the ECU was in turn sending incorrect fuel amounts to the injectors and was doing all sorts of crazy miss firing on different days. I drove around a long time like this until I found out the MAF was the culprit and am now scared to see what the inside of my cyliners look like.
