Pull the codes. Pep Boys is charging for that now, but will 'credit' the fee towards repair cost. A low-budget reader is in the $39.95 ballpark.
You could also check that the MAF is not coated with gunk. If you have a 'free flow' air cleaner, you may have over-oiled it and coated the MAF heated wire sensor with stuff. Clean GINGERLY. What is happening is that it does not sense the air flow quickly because it is insulated by dirt.... Your mileage may vary.
