Bumpy Feeling

Hey guys,
I have a 95 auto with 120k miles. My mom has had the car for the past week and today she told me that the car was "bumping". So I went to check it out and when I started it, the car was shaking up and down while idling in drive. So I started to drive and I noticed that the bumpy feeling was from a stop to 2000 rpm. After that it went away. In fourth gear, while I was maintaining a constant speed, I could not feel it at all. But, as soon as I gave it some gas, the bumping came back. I showed it to a friend and he said I should clean my MAF sensor because I recently purchased a K&N Filter. What do you guys think I should do? Thanks for any help and sorry if it a repost.

You have a misfire.
It's not the MAF sensor.

it might be timing, but considering such incident a ramdom occurance that never happened before, I recommend trying cleaning your MAF sensor regardless. Your exhaust sounds like "broop broop broop broop.." so there might be something wrong with your idle controller
