There are several possible causes to your problem. One as mentioned earlier could be the air mass meter. Below website page from Townsend Imports (a sponsor of this website) provided excellent diagnosis for this (air mass meter) as well as other potential causes (air leaks in vacuum lines). One item I found was that it can be a combination of considerations and bad vacuum lines also contribute. A good search with a mityvac of your lines can reveal underlying leaks. Find a good source of 4mm silicon vacuum line buy about 12 feet will go far in improving performance.
Tom Townsend sells the vacuum line and will also sell you a re-manufactured air mass meter with same warrantee as an OEM for considerably less than what you will pay from dealer. http://www.townsendimports.com
