hey guys, i just got my got the pathfinder to run again by cleaning the MAF sensor now the thing is that when i accelerate it the RPM wont go past 2 1/4 and when it gets that high, its starts to chop alot. idk if i just need to replace the MAF sensor entirely or what.

Still sounds like MAF sensor. Buy the Maxima MAF for $89 (part number is in the general info thread).

Disconnect you negitive battery cable for a few minutes then reconnect, mine was doing the same thing after messing with the MAF and doing that fixed the issue.
