Make sure the MAF sensor is plugged in and the flap hasn't jammed/stuck.

Mine did this and the culprit was a torn gasket between the UIM and LIM. Replaced the gasket and some RTV and fixed the problem. While I had it torn dow I also replaced any worn vacuum lines and the O-rings and grommets on the injectors.
