This problem is really starting to rack my brain and I cant figure it out...
My G is acting up. It starts up fine without a problem but once and a while it will stall out at a Red light. It wont stall at highway speed (thankfully) but it does hesitate and stumble when I step on the gas pedal. Also when I am sitting still the Idle will drop down to like 500rpm and sometimes the engine will stall. It doesn't happen all the time but it is starting to happen more frequently. My SES light has been on for a while now but I finally got around to scanning for codes and it came up P0100 "Mass Air Flow (MAF) Circuit Malfunction".
I have a Cali Spec GTZ so it has 4 02 sensors, 2 Pre Cats and 1 main Cat which are all a pain in the ass.
My last full tune up was less than a year ago, all the usual stuff. Oil change, New Cap, Rotor, PCV Valve, Plug Wires, Air Filter and 6 New NGK Iridiums.
Recently my gas mileage is less than what it should be. I just took a 600 mile drive from North Carolina to New York and I'm only getting about 200 miles per tank.
Just last week I replaced the Distributor, Cap, Rotor, Air Filter, TPS, and IACV. All brand new from Advance Auto Parts. (No Junk Yard Parts) and still no difference. The P0100 was the only SES code so I replaced the MAFS today (also from Advance). I replaced the MAFS and cleared the SES code. It ran fine for about 2 hours and then the SES came back on and the problem came right back.
I'm not throwing anymore parts at the problem until I have a better idea WTF is going on.
Any suggestions are welcome.
PEACE...
