Did you know carb cleaner is the worst thing you can do to your MAF sensor? Not only can it crack the plastic that protects the filaments, it can burn them out. You should only use 'sensor safe' intake cleaner on a fuel injected car.

You may have just caused more problems.

Idk. After I sprayed a BUNCH of cleaner through it. It seems to run very very good now. Also I put the bottom oring on the pcv but it didn't seem o have any effect.

Got it all done Saturday. Seems to run great now by my idle seems high. Like 1000-1500 in park usually around a thousand. Except on first start up it seems to sit at 1500

and in gear it stays a like 900

Check for vacuum leaks (hissing) and perhaps a reason for the throttle body to not close all the way, like a mal-adjusted throttle cable.
