I introduced it to a deer at 55mph. The impact damaged my bumper, hood, and windshield. I was pretty pissed about it. The deer survived, surprisingly btw.

Definitely got a bad MAF now. Reading around 3V instead of 1V at idle. AutoZone wants $220 for a new one, while the dealership wants $620. How the hell can there be a $400 difference in a few resistors? Not to mention this particular MAF is the exact same card unit used on lots of newer model cars (I just pulled one out of a GM car the other day), the only difference being that the connector is a different size. Jews.
Rock Auto. Around 70.00.

Did you try cleaning the MAF first? CRC has a specific cleaner. $14.00 at Autozone.
