Sorry, I have a LCI facelift 2004 3L. Of those choices you listed, I would go with the Bosch not the Bremi especially for only a $15 difference. Yes, I believe it should idle with MAF unplugged, I have seen guys running their E46's unplugged for weeks but again, I do not know the 2003 4.4 system to give you a solid answer. I would look towards an intake leak somewhere in the system causing the stalling but get the new MAF installed and go from there.

Yes I've seen that in other posts. I'm going to look into that too after work today. I can see that going out after sitting for a long time. It was probably already on its way out before she parked it. I kind of wish it was a 3.0 because I know a lot more about that engine, but I'm excited for the new challenge.

I need to try again with a reliable kit, but is this adding up to stuck valves or something else? |

Since you needed to rent a compression tester I'm going to assume that you never perform a compression test on any engines before. Check out YouTube on how to do a compression test. Remove all the spark plugs so that only the cylinder being tested will develop compression. The engine needs to be turning over quickly so make sure the battery is fully charged. Good luck.

1-3 no compression 4 jumped to maybe 40 5 pumped up to 55 maybe 6 35-40 7 maybe 15. 8 the hose was too long in this test for me to get it to screw in. I will try this test again with a proven tester and with a little more care, but obviously things are off. I have a video uploaded to show the results and how the engine idles. The first 10 seconds show the plugs (bank one clean, bank 2 every plug was dirty) the next 30 seconds show my test and the last little bit shows the engine at idle when I first picked it up. I've since had it higher like I explained in my original post. Anyway any pointers from here would be most welcome. https://youtu.be/rF0yUCkaibs |

I would guess your compression gauge is not giving you correct readings. That engine would not start with those low numbers.
