OK, when im driving and I hit the 3k-4k range my car just starts bogging and acts like its not getting any air as if the maf was unplugged or something. I have replaced the o2, and cleaned the maf twice. Ive listened/looked around for a vacuum leak, but dont really see anything. I have also filled it up with gas and added heet water remover to make sure there was no water in the gas tank.

Any ideas? I tried to make a video with my phone, but it was horrible so im not going to bother to post it.

Well I just cranked the car and unplugged the maf and the idle raised a little then went back to normal, bad maf, correct?

I think that's just limp mode, I could be wrong.

Have you tested the MAF? Also there was a TSB on it a while ago, add an extra ground for the MAF.

Anywhere is fine, body or intake manifold works.
