Mass Air Flow sensor - the best one!

Oh, I forgot the best one of all! I got suckered into replacing the $425 air mass sensor plus $85 one hr svc. You can switch it out in under 2 min!!

The symptoms are rough idle and it throws fault codes. There are some platinum wires in there close together. They get dirty from dust and soot.
One of my jetski buddies heard me complaining cause the car was doing it again after the sensor had been replaced a year or so ago.

He said go to auto parts store and buy CRC air mass sensor cleaner for $3.00.
It WORKED perfectly! Every time it starts to act up you literally open the sucker up and give it shot and it fixes it!
