Unhappy Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????
Ok, my 2000 SS idles rough, surges kinda. And at low rpm its real rough and sluggish but if I stab it it runs fine. Had removed the screen on my MAF and everyone said that could be causing the codes P0300 and P0134. So put a differant MAF on same thing. Checked coils and plug wires they're all fine.
And it smells like its running rich. Help guys please I'm going crazy. Sorry so long. Thanks, Have a blessed day.

Yes its a stock MAF. I'm putting new o2s in since they were still under warranty. And then I'm sending the computer to get tuned. Or should I get it
