I changed the MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR METER because the car kept choking off and running rough. Once I did the car runs smooth. But when I try and drive it. It has no power. I press the gas to the floor and it still takes a while to catch up. What could be my problem? Thank you for your help!

Check engine light coming on?

Read the fuel pressure and check for restricted exhaust.

Thank you! I checked the fuel pressure and it's fine. Do you have any other ideas? Now it seems that the transmission doesn't want to change. I smell burnt oil. But sitting idle the car runs great.
