Well, I got the MAF sensor in and all the performance problems pretty much disappeared. Now I'm in a battle with the aft O2 sensor as it is become pretty badly stuck and refuses to move. Ordinarily It wouldn't be too much a problem, but this time of year in New England it is hard to get the daylight/ temperatures needed to spend a too much time on the frozen ground under a jacked-up beetle. I'll have to figure it out soon though as my inspection sticker is about to expire and I don't think I can get the check engine light out with changing the o2's.

Anyone have any ideas on solutions, I'd love to hear them.

In terms of useful info I can add though, I did find a site that sells the MAF for $53; and some online research suggested that many of these things suffer from premature failure.
