If you are experiencing rough idle after the installation of a CAI, Popcharger, or any other oiled filter replacement, here is a easy and relatively safe way to clean oil off the MAF.

1. Remove MAF tube from whatever setup you run. (This step is not needed if you are very careful and can complete step 2 with out the assembly touching or knocking anything.)



2. Un-screw MAF assembly from MAF tube.







3. Spray access hole with Electrical Parts Cleaner. Allow to dry out (10-15 minutes). Repeat as you wish. Make sure it is dry as the liquid can damage MAF if present on startup. Also Electrical Parts Cleaner is very flammable.

There are a couple of different types of electronics cleaners. There are some types that are corrosive. Make sure it's the type to use on sensitive electronics components. It will say on the can that if it's not good for sensitive electronics, ie PC boards etc.

Good post.

Yeah thats what others have said. . .I am guessing because it is much cheaper than Electrical parts cleaner. But for electronics, like Jessie said above, be careful what you use. I chose the safest stuff.
