Things can never be simple LOL

Working on a '00 GP 3.8L, scanned it came up with a P0102, Smack the MAF and Hz drop off to 0 ok so MAF is bad. Install new MAF guess what same problem but no P0102 or any other DTC's. So working on it for a while rev it up and notice the UIM was moving in and out with RPM's. checked the bolts and they were all loose.

Murphy's Law: What can go wrong will go wrong.

That is why I use threadlocker all UIM, LIM and throttle body bolts.

UIM? Could you please explain in more detail please. I have pulled that code and replaced the MAF but still get the same problems. This may be my solution!
