So I took my increased emissions problem to a local Indy and they told me I need a new mass air flow sensor/meter. But I notice on realeom.com there are two. One for exhaust manifold and one in the intake and fuel delivery. Anyone know which of these would more commonly cause an increased emissions fault on a 2004 530

Is the car idling/running poorly? Poor fuel economy?
