Next move has to be getting a code reader on it.

If the light is on, it should hopefully give a clue as to the problem, proper diagnostic code reader for starters.

Try unplugging the MAF sensor and see if that improves things...

If it does, then you probably need the MAF replaced, which doesn't always throw a fault code.

I went through this before...

It's the plug between your airbox and your throttle, should be fairly obvious.
