dodgy maf sensor

[wacker315]

My 306 hdi is very un responsive especially high in the rev range. i unplugged my maf and took the car for another spin. and it was like a different car. so much more responsive! Would this defo mean i need a new maf? my clutch is also very heavy and sort of makes a klunk noise near biting point. i have just removed that spring near the pedal but still no joy. Would a clutch cable fix this problem do u think? thanks in advance guys
