And the rough idle could be the fact the MAF needs a clean.
Spray some carb cleaner into it after you disclocate it from the air flter.  The car will run a  little rough at first and then it will clear up.
It could be other things, but this is a cheap and easy place to start.

Carb cleaner or intake medic?
I doubt it would matter but Intake medic is sensor safe... Carb cleaner isnt I dont beleive.
