Recently changed the MAF Sensor on my 2003 Silverado 1500HD 4X4. Not setting any more codes but now the car is chugging/sputtering during light acceleration. Any possible causes. No answer from mechanic.

check the vacuum line to the
check the vacuum line to the MAF (especially where it comes from the engine).
Generally, changing the MAF wouldn't cause this problem so check for anything that may have been disconnected by accident.
check that PCV hose and spark
check that PCV hose and spark plug wires on that side of the engine (actually both sides--was just thinking that maybe something on that side got disconnected during the repair).
