That is Normal 4K rpm cut-out in N or P . That is the torque converter load protection safety feature. If you tried N while the car was moving a few MPH, you will notice that feature would be disabled.
>>My parts guy mentioned that the mass air sensor on these cars is a commonly replaced item. I would think that a bad air sensor would trip a code.

Possible, but before changing it , I would get some MAF cleaner and try that.
You really need a scope or adaptation #s to properly diagnose the MAF
Do a search on MAF cleaning and I will post some other info shortly.
I would also pull the vac line OFF the purge valve and run the car with that line plugged to be sure it is not causing an internal vac leak..just disregard any purge code in the meantime..
PS --Jim,
I saw you are now are on Utube with some 113 suspension tutorials..very cool.. maybe I can be your Agent....
Here is another video that explains the basics of MAF management that is cool too..I like this guys style .... [This uses later style wide band 02 sensors rather than the one in your car, and may be a little Technical for the diy guy , but still some good info for the curious]
Check it out..............
