Has the check engine light ever come on? Have you checked for vacuum leaks?

I think I found the problem, I changed the MAF sensor the one on the Air box and now it seems fine.

I'm glad you got it fixed. THat is why I asked if the check engine light was on. I was trying to determine if it was a sensor. Regardless, let us know if you have questions in the future.

The weird thing is that there was no check engine light on. I think that was the MAF sensor, it is the one with 3 screws on the throtal body, am I right is that the MAF sensor?
