These codes have been discussed here many times.

Again, Go get a smoke test for any leaks. When I had these codes my indy found a leak in the oil fill tube. Light came back on again. Put in a new MAF and problem fixed. No CEL at this point. Probably both issues together were causing the CEL. You have to start somewhere and a smoke test is the place to start.

You do have to clear the codes to see if they will come back.
Cleaning the MAF does not work unless it is really dirty and looks like it needs cleaning. If you clean it, it may last for a couple of weeks. After several start and run cycles it more than likley will come back on.
