Electrical contact cleaner is better suited for heavier electrical/electronic components not a sensitive MAF sensor. MAF spray cleaner is specially formulated for MAF sensor cleaning and does not leave any residue, period. Most brake parts cleaners are not really plastic safe either.
I am gun shy on taking any sensors off an old throttle body if there is a work around. I removed the AIC on my 99 and the bolt broke off on removal NOT install. This was a major PITA to repair.

I guess I have been lucky to date using the electronic parts cleaner and brake cleaner. heh
I will look for some MAF cleaner though.

I didn't mean to mislead anybody!
Thats OK Keith. You are excused. Honest mistake.

Congratulations on your AF Advisor status.
