Recently my check engine light came on and it seems like the car isn't running quite right. I took it to auto zone and had the code read, which turned out to be P0102.

The symptoms of the problem are:
Occasional stalls when starting.
If the engine doesn't stall when starting it seems like it's struggling.
Acceleration is minimal now, just doesn't feel like much is there.
The check engine light of course ;]

Now I just recently replaced my MAF due to a K&N filter the previous owner had installed, I doubt the MAF is bad. I'm not sure where to start in terms of troubleshooting. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

16486

P0102

Mass or Volume Air Flow Circ Low Input

Looks like either a bad maf, or an air leak somewhere. Check the connectios to the maf, and all hose connections, on both sidesof the engine. I.E. check the hose from side mount to TB as well.

 

I just pulled off the MAF and air filter and such. The filter seemed a bit dirty, is it possible for a dirty air filter to throw the p0102 code?

Regardless, i'm cleaning the filter now and i'll toss it back on in a little bit and see if that had anything to do with the problem.
