[V6-12v] MAF sensor - a different approach

[clive young]

Hi Guys 

 i was thinking about Toms entry some time ago about the Mass Air Flow sensor and since I was working on the car anyway I thought I would check it out .. okay i had the hood up . 
    Those wires are REALLY fine and had visions of busting them offtrying to clean them,after all "no good deed goes unpunished".
    So I grabbed my trusty brake cleaner and sprayed for about .1 of a second. The two wires were sparkling so brightly I couldn't believe it. 
    Left them about a minute for the stuff to evaporate and put it back in . ! Worked great for me Not sure if brake cleaner will harm the sensor but I doubut it as it is basically alcohol, plus to contact with tools or anyhting else makes it low risk .
