UPDATE
First a great thanks to all the advice I received here.
After espresso this morning went to task
Would not do a normal start but by pushing gas to floor and easing up while running had a rough idle around 500 rpm
Slowly smoothed out
Popped off air filter and shot the MAF sensor with a couple of quick blasts of CRC MAF cleaner Waited a few seconds and shot the sensor with some canned air.
Running great.
Gonna go do a throttle reset.
Black Friday wish list for Rob @ Needswings.....fuel filter, oil filters, and plugs
Thanks again for info

Good to hear it and lear something every day. For me it usually takes three or four CRC spray cleanings over a week or so before I give up and buy a new MAF sensor.

High mileage vehicles may see performance improvement with an injector service/cleaning, especially after spraying cleaners designed to break loose the crud. This is the service provider I went with recommended by a few others here on the forum.

Am putting off till mid week. Will send you a PM when down there; perhaps get together for a short drive? I was glad to see that you were able to clear up the rough running.
