What is your question?
I recently got a sensor pop up on me the (SES) light , through the day it will come on for about 15 ,20 minutes the go off sometimes for the rest of the day and most likely pop up again the next day . Took it to autozone and they said it's my MAF Sensor giving me this problem . Changed it but light still comes on any help? Also feel a jerk at acceleration mostly during 1 and 2nd gear sometimes in the rest I have a 2000 Chevy Camaro v6 3800 series111

Common misconception is when the light turns on that it automatically means a sensor has gone bad .. The light simply means there is a problem with one of the monitored on board systems... The only way to find the actual problem is through systematic testing which usually starts with a scan test .. This is not not just a code read, like Zone did but a real scan test... As you can now see Zone just sold you a part .. Your best route to take is have a full professional scan test performed by qualified personnel.... Save all that money wasted buying unnecessary parts .. Good luck with it!
And will that take care of the bit of hesitation I was speaking of? Or are they seperate problems . If any mechanical problem is here would like to fix it my self to save money . Any helpful steps I could take would be great
Repair shop should be glad to run full scan and give you a printout or suggestions as to what the problem is .. Call around for scan test prices... It's just too many possibilities to try and fix it via parts replacement only.
