Question. Did you have any problem before cleaning the MAFS? Lack of power ? Blowing lots of smoke,excessive fuel consumption? After cleaning, what was or if any noticeable differences? Do you also do a factory reset to remap?
Vincent Battista - yeah i havent found much of an argument not to use contact cleaner. I just figure they cost a lot to replace so can justify an extra few $
For me it was poor mileage and poor acceleration. The sensor measures weight/temp of incoming air and the ecu calculates the fuel required using the reading. Over time, the sensor gets caked in dirt.
I'm sure it happens all the time but allegedly contact cleaner leaves a slight residue (but it's still gotta be better than the grime on it). However having used both they both seem identical. I just went with the maf cleaner because they cost a lot to replace if damaged.
