I did not drive my car for about four days, the weather was nice and I was riding my bike. I got in the car two days ago to drive to work and it was running like poopie. I figured it was just because it was cold and it hadn't been ran in a few days. As I was driving it seemed to clear up but whe nI came to a stop it stumbled and struggled to run. It was putting out some serious black smoke (I was told that black or brown smoke was fuel, please correct me if this is wrong). I pulled all of the plugs and they were all gas fouled. I replaced them with new NGK plugs and nothing changed. I decided to unplug the MAF and see if the problem persisted, it did not. Once I unplugged the MAF the idle cleared up and there was no smoke. I plugged it back up and the problem instantly came back. I ordered a new (used) MAF that sould arrive today. I will post whether or not this fixes the problem. Thanks again for all if the tips.
