Sometimes it just stays running smooth, other times it just hiccups while in park like you see in the 1st video where the RPMs drop and come back and that's it. I put a new battery and just drove it and came up with this code P2774 air mass, plausibility: air mass too high (not present) but check engine light is on. It can also be called p00BD mass or volume air flow "A" circuit range performance-air flow too high
Under permanent codes which I think some were there from before I replaced the battery because there were so many codes then are:
P0100
P10f5
P00bc
P0172
When I first try to floor the gas pedal the RPMs dropped so I don't get the full normal throttle. The 2nd video shows that.
Also, I drive it around twice, if I stop and am still in gear it will stumble. I can turn it back on and if it stays in park it will not die but will hiccup.

Thanks for the videos, this sounds like you have a vacuum leak which I have heard these cars can crack the valve cover, also I would service the throttle body, this would account for the P2774 code. I would also get some MAF cleaner to service that is well, check for a vacuum leak when the engine is cold only, and then go over these guides to help us find the problem.

It looks like you have a problem with the wiring for the MAF sensor or the connector is having problems. Here is a guide to help you test the connections and the MAF wiring diagrams to help with the test. Also, cleaning the sensor will not work if the sensor is bad. so, I would try a new sensor first.

Thanks for the reload, I'm on desktop. With all these codes I would say the DME is bad. Here is how you can replace it.

I found this leak, just not sure what can be causing it, looks like it's a bot broken but not sure if it's the whole thing on bottom, isn't this the air cooler?
