ok i drove the disco around for about 15mins today and it seems to be normal in first and even second gear, but when in 3rd gear it seems like it only has 5hp and does not want to go any were and i hear two pops it backfires twice through the intake in 3rd gear. The idle seems to be a little bit better also. And there are NO CEL'S popping up.  

Any help will be much would be great. thanks.

So, do all of your hoses look good now? Does it run any different with the MAF unplugged?
