Your MAF is crapping out. You can pull the seal that the maf wiring runs through ontop of the airbox. Unplug the maf and start the engine and take it around the block. If it drives better with the maf unplugged then thats the problem. Try to clean it with electronics or MAF cleaner. If that doesn't work, replace it.

Driving with the maf unplugged will cause it to run a little rich, so don't drive far.

If nothing changes with the maf unplugged or after it's cleaned, it could be your 02 sensor. It's more than likely your maf, though.

Wow AEB mafs are priced in a ridiculous way. I can't find one that is reasonably priced anywhere.
