If there any air getting in between the maf and the intake manifold, a vacuum leak, or an intake manifold leak, it will cause it to run lean.
 






Okay thanks guess I'll have to find which hose went bad and fix it , this could cause to back fire correct ?
 






backfires are from rich conditions that put unburnt fuel into the exhaust and then it explodes....I have not heard of backfires for quite a long time.... mostly was on not cat emissions engines
 






Got it figured out... Wasn't paying attention when I changed the cool pack put wore 5 in the 4 slot the 4 in the 5 slot
 






that would definitely put unburned hydrocarbons into the exhaust
 






That's what happens when you're in a rush . Lol next time I'm taking my sweet ass time... I even had the wires marked..... My markings were correct just didn't plug them in right
