And, It's been running fine. I still feel it's a bit week in second gear but that's mostly getting on the freeway. We can't figure it out. He is thinking I may need another bottle of water remover in the fuel tank (the first bottle perhaps didn't get all the water).
If anything else comes up, I'll let ya'll know.

So my engine spit it's second spark plug last weekend. Once again, my good friend took care of it for me at a fraction of what anyone else would charge. While he had the air cleaner/MAF assembly off the van, he noticed something. The MAF was not inserted all the way. I didn't see it, but he described that the MAF was not seated; however, there was still a good seal. He pushed the MAF fully back into it's place and re-assembled it all.
Let me tell you; I have my power back. I have to assume that the low power was due to the MAF. I doubt fixing the spit plug would give me more power (since it was working fine before being spit).
what do you guys think? could the MAF not being properly seated affect it's operation? I've driven it for a week now and I no longer have that flat-power feeling in second gear.
