Default Trouble shooting SES....Please Help

I have a thread running in the internal engine section and got a reply saying it could be a tuning problem resulting in my power loss so I thought I would post a link to that thread for the tuners. Any help is much appreciated.

There is the posiblity that the power loss isn't related to the ticking. (while it would make sense)

Try disconnecting your MAF sensor. Run the car and see how the power is. If it runs fine.....you've found the problem...I've seen it a couple times where there is no code for the MAF but the car runs like crap. Cleaned the oil and dirt off the MAF and it ran great.

dont use solvents to clean a MAF.... use computer air used to clean keyboardds only. stop oiling your air filter..

Default Maf

Disconnected MAF and it ran fine....reconnected MAF and it wasnt running as bad as before. SES light(knock sensor) still on, still have ticking in right header area from underneath. Thanks for the MAF info.
