Cleaned MAF and Air temp sensor

[kevintomb]

Well finally gave in and tried these 2 items...both were somewhat dirty...Was easy to do and reset the Computer after I did it.
Have to say was the best 20 minutes job ive ever done, immediately noticed a difference.....although slight it made it run better...idle was a LOT smoother and didnt hunt up and down at all or vibrate anymore. And slight throttle response was noticable better at very light throttle openings, hoping THIS makes my relatively low gas mileage go up a bit at least...as for overall power, it MAY be a bit better but hard to say....may be the placebo effect, but it FELT seat of the pants better....hard to explain..but glad I did it.....

Also did it on my camry 2003 with 68K miles and its IDLE was a LOT better....an unreal difference..!!!

Where do I find those components and how specifically did you clean them? Thanks in advance!

So besides clearing any debris, do you use anything in particular to clean it like Carb/Choke cleaner?

CRC Mass Air Flow Sensor Cleaner (Grey Label) is my preference.
