Re: Cleaning MAF???
Yes,
I just found that CRC product as well at Advance. It states on the label that it is safe for all MAF systems on any car, any vintage, including the sensor itself as well as the electrical connectors. I am in the middle of cleaning my throttle body out, so I can't yet attest to the effectiveness of the CRC cleaner, but I'd use that over throttle body or carb cleaner. In my experience, MAFS are very delicate, I would not use carb cleaners on them at all.

I have used the CRC cleaner before. IT worked very well. Just be VERY careful when spraying that hot wire!
