M.A.F sensor issue... Please help

I have a 2002 buick rendevues with 130 miles (3.4L 2x4). It started Reving up really high (past 4000 rpms) and stalling sometimes. I pulled the code and it stated p0101 mass or volume airflow malfunction. I checked the vacuum line on the tube that connects between the throttle body and the airbox, it has good vacume. The air filter is also clean. I cleaned the maf sensor with no success. I unplugged it and it still ran like crap. I then bought a cheaper maf sensor at pep boys and replaced it, still didn't help after diving for a day. I bought a better more expensive maf sensor and that didn't help either. What I found very odd is after replacing it 12 new codes popped up. When I clear the codes with the scanner the car runs perfect with the new maf sensor. 10 minutes later the check engine light will pop back on, then the car will stall and run like crap again. It's not drivable at this point. I can, but it puts a lot of stress on the car and revs very high.

You are getting unmetered air in there from somewhere. The first sting to check is the intake snorkel for any tears or leaks of any kind between the MAF and the throttle body.

Closely look at the connector for the maf and make sure that its in good shape. Check ALL vacuum lines. Ive had the one on the top of the throttle body give me problems, as its hard to see it under a bracket. Do you have a digital multimeter? Does your scanner show live data?

The connections look good it almost seems like something is giving it a false reading. I checked with the multi that has a hertz setting and it is stable at idle and increases as I jump the rpms up, seems to be doing what it should. Could the pcm throw a maf code? Any other sensors? I'm at a loss.

There may be a problem elsewhere in the circuit.
Make sure you have "key on" power on the pink wire and ground on the blk/wht wire.

You might want to check your exhaust for restriction and excessive backpressure. Air won't come in if it can't get out.

A day prior to the problem I had my car on a lift and had to cut the tail pipe off because it was pinched almost shut after the muffler. The rest of my exhaust was good. Strange that it happened a day after that though. It was literally only the last 5 inches of my tail pipe.

You don't know that. You have no idea if your converter is restricted unless you took a pressure test.

I really doubt it's my cat I replaced them about 8 months ago with brand new ones because they were throwing codes and I couldn't pass emissions. That problem has been fixed and it has been less then a week since this problem has happened. I didn't replace them with cheap ones either. All the advice you have given has been great but I've tried all that, I am pretty knowledgeable on fixing cars and have done all repairs on my vehicles any time a problem has risen, I must say this time I am stumped though. I really appreciate your on going help. Thanks again.

Don't guess, test for back pressure. That bent tail pipe may not have been the only problem and may have caused another,

I will update you when I do, hopefully tomorrow. I have access to a garage where I can do it for free with the proper equipment. Thanks.

Does this garage have a smoke machine? If so smoke that thing for leaks.

You can also check for backpressure using a vacuum gauge
Measure direct port vacuum and you should have something around 18-20". Slowly bring the throttle up to around 2500RPMs and see if the vacuum drops off substantially.

Vacume pressure was good today and we thoroughly checked for vacuume leaks. I read that my car has a map sensor too. I thought it had either a maf or map not both. I'm going to pick up a new map sensor and give it a try. What do you think?

The MAP sensor on that engine is used to measure barometric pressure and to act as a back up when the MAF sensor signal is lost. Don't think I have ever seen a MAP sensor go bad on those.
Have you cleaned the throttle body? I don't see how an exhaust restriction or vacuum leak would make the engine idle up to 4 K. You may need to bring it to a shop and have them connect a scan tool up to monitor datastream information. Maybe they can pick out something to get direction in determining the culprit.
Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.
