98 maxima misfire stalling

I've searched for this but i can't find any answers. My check engine light came on about a month ago and it gave me 2 codes p0325 knock sensor and a p0100 maf sensor. My car has been stalling once in a while but up until now it stalled then i started it back up and it began misfiring and shaking really bad so i ran a code check again and it still said the same maf and knock codes. so my question being is my maf gone or can i try cleaning it for it to work and is the misfiring being caused by the maf?

Lies!!!

You didn't search, obviously.

I'll spoon feed you.

You probably need a new MAF.
You can try to clean it with the specific cleaner, but that probably won't work.

Best bet is to post a WTB for one in the classifieds.

The knock sensor code may or may not go away on its own.

Replace the MAF sensor, clear the codes. If the knock sensor code comes back replace it.

Or you can try to re-solder the MAF if you have the capabilities. No point in wasting money if it can be fixed. There's a thread on how to fix it on the org. I'd give you the link, but I can't off the app. And like Fakie said, search/search better! Or the people here won't like you for too much longer. Lol. :P

Go to the Junkyard and get one MAF from there and you will be ok. Had the same problem last year , did the MAF change and working fine since then.
