well i noticed it idle low and rough on mon or tues only once or twice, then it did it wed worse and finally stalled and that's when i popped the hood and seen the air filter had come off so i don't know how long it had been off for...

 

well i disconnected the battery for over 24 hours, unplugged the maf, disconnected the tb and plenum, cleaned everything real good including the maf... and now when i start it, i can rev it for a few seconds...maybe 10 until it won't let me anymore and stalls... i then tried doing all the procedures homieG recommended (except of course the last one bc my car wont stay running) and now i'm at a loss... all i can think of is maybe the tb &/or maf need replacing..? any idea of what either costs?

 

ok the G is running!! After cleaning the maf a 2nd time and waitng til it dried, it started and ran! I let it run for about 10 minutes until the idle finally smoothed out. Thanks for all your help guys! I'm gonna keep an eye on my filter from now on to make sure it doesn't come off again.
