K&N Oil On the MAF sensor Is most likely your problem. Grab some Mass Air Flow sensor Cleaner at the auto parts store and give that a shot... Very common....

ive got an 03 5.3 with 112k and my service engine soon light came on friday but its not throwing a code, ive tried a new fuel filter, could it be my MAF also? ive got a rough idle, crappy gas mileage, and slow accel.. feels like the truck is loafing really bad. only mods are a flowmaster dump...
