Don't tell me you can clear the KAM without solving the problem, that would make me sad.......

Maybe, maybe not. If you clear it, the CEL may or may not come back, and it may be instantaneous or it may take a while. If you have been using a K&N filter, the MAF needs periodic cleaning anyway.

Well its back on again. Has been for about 2 weeks? I have just been crazy busy. I noticed on Saturday while I was idling and had the heater on ( I had been idling for about 5 minutes) It started idling roughly. It sounds normal when I am listening to the engine. But then I don't really know what abnormal would sound like. I am going to try to find the PCV? this weekend, still haven't really located it to check it...stay tuned....

What is the code that set the CEL this time, please!
You need to know what your looking for.
Good luck.

If you are going to be doing your own work, buy an inexpensive code scanner.
