UPDATE!!! I almost can't believe it, but after cleaning out my MAF and doing NOTHING else besides driving around for a week, my MPG seems to have gone up. Before I was getting 30 MPG and after doing the MAF cleaning I'm getting 32.7 MPG!!! So if you haven't cleaned yours for a while (several years for me), this is definitely a worthwhile task!
Thanks! This has been on my mind for some time. Scotty talks about doing this all the time. After I find out about my oil leak on Saturday, I'll decide if I want to do this. This is certainly an easier fix.
Have you replaced the Cat yet? I replaced the original with a Magnaflow which lasted some time but now it seems to be failing. I was thinking Walker or Doorman. They are pricey though.
I haven’t replaced the Cat, still on the OEM one. I have a Walker on another car but yeah they’re expensive especially the California CARB certified ones.
Run TECHRON or Lucas DEEP CLEAN and that will help with cleaning the cat's and 02 sensors. I run each product in my truck. I bottle of Techron (blk bottle) every 3rd fill up and Lucas Deep Clean on fill up just before an oil change. Clean that MAF Folks as described in video. It does wonders to any vehicle that has one.
