    To rule out the MAF causing the issue, unplug it and drive without it for a bit, see if the problem continues.

    If they problem magically stops, you've found the issue.

    If it continutes with the MAF unplugged, keep searching.

    This. And if it DOES go away, try the pick and pull lots for a MAF. I had to replace it on my GP at about 100k miles. That replacement was still going strong when I sold it at 204k. And I never got a MAF code that it was bad. Car just stalled when I slowed down, and if I kept giving it gas, it would keep running.
