01 Cabrio issues
I just bought this cabrio after it had been sitting a couple of years. The fuel pump was locked up, replaced pump and filter along with cleaning the tank out. It starts fine and will idle all day but when driving it will gradually quit taking the throttle. Will run wide open for a few seconds then cut off like its running out of fuel but if you back off the throttle it comes back and runs fine but will not take more throttle. then gradually takes less and less til it will only run at idle or just barely cracked throttle. The only codes I have gotten are 102, 506, and 1128. All pretty much point toward the MAF but I hate to buy one til I am reasonably sure that's the problem. Has anyone else had similar issues? I have checked the fuel line from the tank to the regulator and they are open. Any help or advise is greatly appreciated. This is my first late model vw, the old bugs were much more simple!!!

Welcome to the forum. 
I don't recognise those error codes 102, 506, and 1128 what did you use to scan your motor?

I'm using a Memoscan OBD II scanner.
102-generic MAF circuit A low input
506-generic idle control system RPM low
1128- VW specific code-Long Term Fuel Trim B1 System Too Lean
From the research I've done the MAF is looking likely but would like to hear others experiences/opinions

Special Notes:
In MY 1995-2002 (?) in Europe at VW-diesel-cars G70 had the bad reputation of slowly losing his performance, causing loss of power. It's not a matter of defective or breaking down, but it is filthy / dirty (not easy to clean). You can check functionality by making a log in [01-engine], [meas.blocks-08], group 003 (3e gear, full throttle, from 1700-4000rpm).
