Hello, my name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* thank you for using just answer. The site will prompt a phone call, but that is not always necessary. If it is necessary later in the conversation, I will propose it. I am sorry you are having this concern, but I will do my best to assist you.

Ok. I will still need the year and model of the Cadillac, and the code for the [catalytic converter](/topics-catalytic-converter-chevy/). Was it a p0420? There is more than one cat, so I want to be sure.

Ok. So, you have replaced the mass air flow sensor, but your still having the same issue, and code. If you suspect a [exhaust](/topics-exhaust-chevy/) restriction, (plugged cat), you can verify this by loosening the exhaust before the catalytic converter, and see if you regain your acceleration.

It means your catalytic converter/ exhaust is plugged. You should also make sure that the intake piping between the MAF and engine has no leaks, and their is nothing restricting the air filter ( check the ductwork before the air filter as well).
