    Clean and reset the MAF and see if you get a change. There is a situation that can occur if the MAF voltage remains at a certain level for a length of time it goes into limp. I have forgotten the values but mine has done it occasionally.

    Now you have changed the question lol. Have you got a Dawes fitted? Could have moved or spring broken or seat covered in oil. If you don't have NADS my last sentence is bull.
