Default NA Engine Stuttering

Hi, for the past 2 days my engine has started stuttering when i come to a stop. i
it doesn't happen all the time, but randomly, about 1 in every 15 stops or so.
when i give it gas its back to normal.
i recently got my spark plugs and wires changed last week, and did oil change on the weekend.
could any of those be the issue?

Spark plugs? Yes they could be the trouble if they were not installed correctly, did the problem occur at that time more or less considering it happens every 15 times or so?

I just had this issue last week and fixed it.
https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...on-sensor.html

I took out the throttle body and MAF and cleaned them both, cleared any codes, did a throttle reset and then drove around about 50 miles to make sure everything is calibrated and it runs just like it did before.

I would clean your MAF first, a can of MAF cleaner and throttle body cleaner is $10.

I originally thought my crankshaft or camshaft sensor was going back but then I finally got a MAF code so I cleaned everything and it works great now.

It helps to have an OBDII adapter and Torque if you have an android phone, iPhone has their own app as well. $30 for the best code reader I've ever used.

I didn't have an engine light on either but my app was still showing pending and fault codes for the MAF, I had code P0101.

I had a bit of stuttering after I cleaned the MAF so make sure you drive enough and mixed driving helps too, spirited and stop n' go will help everything calibrate again.

And if this doesn't work you're only out $10. But if it does work, you save $150.

I think its the crankshaft position sensor that usually faiils and Bosch is the recommended vendor.

I hope so because that's the spare I carry.
