My car was running rough so I changed the MAss Air Flow sensor meter. Now the car runs great Idling. Now my problem is, it seems that it won't take the gas. It seems to have no power. What could be the problem? Please advise

How long since a tune-up? Any applicable trouble codes? You should be able to check mil codes, yourself. You use a jumper wire between the A & B terminals at the data link connector. Then, you turn the key, just till the dash lites come on, no further. The mil on the dash starts flashing, you count the flashes to get the codes.

What led you to change the maf sensor?
