Now check the air filter if you haven't. Chances are that if your MAF was dirty enough to make the car do that bad, the filter is dirty. And if it's a K&N style, don't put a ****load of oil in it. It'll just get onto the sensor......

Just think, they might have sold it because it was so slow.

If you clean your filter run it for a day then re clean the maf. even if you do light oil some can still make it onto sensor.
