Can someone give me the detailed procedure for removing and cleaning the MAF on 96 2.0. I searched the web and came up with cleaning the sensor wires with electrical contact cleaner.

Any procedure/chemical recommendations would be appreciated.

Remove the sensor from the housing, two t-15 safety torx screws (a Vise-Grip can do it). Soak the whole thing in a jar of at least 90% rubbing alcohol, available at any pharmacy. Do not touch, brush or use elec contact cleaner. I've not had much luck with cleaning, unless there's been alot of oil in the intake pipes.

I had a bad air pressure regulator valve. It completely coated my intake system with oil. The more I clean the better the car seems to run, Intake hose, throttle body, intake manifold, fuel injector cleaner. I got at the maf last night and cleaned it. The idle seems to have smoothed out. Now I am waiting for the OBDtool software to reset the cel. Wish me luck.
