Cardone MAF. Still stalling out.

So after replacing the maf with a Cardone 74-10035 remanufactered maf that I saw had good results here on maxima.org, the engine sounds a little sluggish/weak at startup before settling down to a stable low rpm after about 2 mins. I can't tell exactly how low because the tach is broken (haywire) but it is very quiet. Also the engine kind of vibrates when first pulling off. Could it be that with the new maf the idle needs to be increased? BTW The maf looks exactly like the original in every regard.

So after thinking that the Cardone maf had at least fixed my P100 stalling problem, it didn't. Cut out on the highway with revs dying first. Tried to give it gas but nothing. Started a couple of times but cut off a few secs later. Was finally able to get it back home from a couple of miles away with it driving ok-ish. Check light came back on. The onboard ecu gave me a 0304 but the obd scanner just 0325. Help again.
Btw Why doesn't the scanner show 0304 error too?

Not sure if theyre the same codes off the top of my head but the blink codes you get are not the same as the scanner codes. Blink codes are in the "long blink - short blink" format ie; 0304. Scanner codes begin with a P, ie; P0325.

Could very well be the same code, just different format of telling you. Double check what they each mean and see if they match. P codes generally can be googled since theyre the same across all obd2 systems as far as i know - blink codes are maxima specific so search here.
