    Spray carb cleaner on that TB spacer... if your idle changes.. you found your vac leak.

    Better yet go buy a 30 buck boost gauge and hook it up. That will tell you if you have another vac leak.

    1. put the stock pulley on.
    2. Check and see if the FPR is leaking into the vac line and check fuel pressure.

    hmm. i replaced my MAF because of a code that said the voltage for the maf sensor was high or something. i would think if it went bad again i would get the same code. i did get a cheapo from a junk yard.. could be the problem.
