Is a new maf needed?

Just want to say also ..... I know I'm a forum virgin as such!!hi to all
An always use good lube and please be gentle with me!

Sounds like you'll fit in just fine!

Ok, so probably not the maf then. Where's the cone filter, does it have a good cold air feed? Might be worth trying the original filter box, they're pretty capable, at least they are compared to most of the cone filters you can buy for less than a ton lol.
