Not sure if there clogged or not. I get a strong metalic smell once in awhile, almost like brakes. I unplugged the o2's and nothing. Should the two wires in the MAF glow red hot when on? Just replaced the leeky water pump also...

yes the wires in the MAF are supposed to be heated wires, they measure the air flow by sensing the temperature change in the wires as air flows over them. one thing you might try is disconnecting the battery negative cable for a few minutes to let the computer reset and see if this helps any.

No, not yet. I've cleaned the MAF already. Question is? Do the two wires glow red hot?? Could this be a leaky head gasket? It's not over heating or losing coolant? Or a bad distributor??

alcohol and a soft toothbrush, I'd do after you get your filter re-packed.
