Well my MAF had a broken wire inside it and caused a rough idle and caused the car to randomly die and shake. Also, I seafoamed through the brake booster and it fouled my plugs out. All were black except #8. I know you don't wanna hear that but FYI.

you can spray carb cleaner around the engine and if it dies down some you have found the spor of your leak.
