OK.

Are you sure the new MAF is correctly installed and getting power?

The battery started "bleeding"? Do you mean leaking or running down easily?

A weak battery can cause the ECU to do all kinds of weird things.

I'm going to ring up ol @steve99 for you. He is pretty smart with these engines. Maybe he can help.

I hope you get it sorted out soon. Keep us posted.

STORY TIME

The last time I heard an engine run like that was a flathead V-8 Ford engine on a trailer. The painter was using it to spray paint our barn back on the farm. He had removed 4 spark plugs and screwed in pipe fittings that led to his air powered spray gun.

Yep, them old flatheads were tough -
