once warmed it sputters on takeoff then smooths out somewhat as the rpms go up
the wires are old and I'm betting the coils are original
so I guess on Mon I'll order a new set of plugs and coils to boot since they aren't that expensive

What I meant was, I had your guys symptoms. I replaced the coils.
THAT'S when the cold start symptoms started!
"Your" guys symptoms were gone. But the starting problem began. That's why I bought the MAF.

One other thought...though I cringe to think of the hours of contortion [and hours of possibly required chiropractic care....] is to check each and every connection between the engine bay and the fuse box...to include the LH and EZF computer. I did this, measuring resistance on each wire. I did NOT have a good time.
