Default 3.1L MAF min frequency

I am having (possibly vacuum) issues with my lumina dying at times with PO101. I replaced the valve cover vacuum line, still quits intermittenly. I need to know what the low end (idle) frequency range is. I did watch a youtube for an 8.3 L, might be the same min max low end acceptible range.

Well, apparently 2K hz is the minimum at idle.

Still have an issue. Car dies with CEL, po101. I have to erase the code for it to start, and run (intermittent). This started a month ago with what I thought at the time a vacuum leak. I have replaced the maf, unplug it running stays running, what I don't get is the po101 causing the engine to die, or is this something else?
