air flow sensor cleaning question
Can the MAF sensor be cleaned ?
Does it need to be cleaned ? if so , can it be wiped clean or can we use
a cleaner on it ? What type ?
What do we NOT do, as well ?
Thanks.

Re: air flow sensor cleaning question
it can and it should lol. the only thing you clean it with is a can of MAF sensor cleaner from the auto store. spray it on as many times as it takes to clean it and then let it dry before installing. using any other type of cleaner or physically wiping it will harm the sensor. using carb cleaner (which is 100x stronger than maf cleaner) will permanently destroy it.
