Clean the MAF first, with proper spray, ie carb cleaner, then reset the ecu by pulling for a minute or so the KAM fuse, a 3 amp VIOLET colour fuse in the fusebox near the nearside turret.
The when you have done this get the CO checked, as may well need a new lambda.

I just did a lambda in a zetec s(1.25) showing CO of over 5%!!, got a lambda from eco lambda dropped to what it should be and driveability came back big time.
