How to: Clean the MAF Sensor

Not much to this but to do it...
What you need:
T27 Torx Bit
Ratchet
Ratchet Extension
Sensor Safe MAF Cleaning Spray
Q-tips





Spray EVERYTHING down with the cleaning spray. Then VERY VERY CAREFULLY take the qtips and after spraying them with the cleaning spray clean the metal inside the plastic piece. On this particular sensor it took 1.5 qtips to clean the sensor completely.



Now that everything is all clean again.. put it back together DUH.. lol

Be sure to get the sensor facing the right way..

Enjoy the better MPG and Performance!!!

And for those who care yes you must keep the screen in your MAF sensor in order to straighten the airflow out over the sensor thus giving a more accurate reading of airflow vs. that of a sensor without a screen. Also there is NO need for upgrading the size of MAF unless you are maxing out the stock one and since you can run 10lbs of boost on the stock maf and not max it I dont wanna hear anyone say that they are maxing their stocker without boost.. lol
