OK if you would unplug the mass air flow meter and see if it will run any better or worse. If that don't change anything then ohm the coolant temp sensor and do this cold get back to me with the ohm reading and air temp and I will look it up and see if it is in spec.

I need you to unplug the coolant temp sensor (key off engine off). Ohm across the terminals. If you do this when the car is cold then get back to me with the air temp and ohms of the sensor. I will look up the specs and see if it is within specs.
