Then again, this is just my experience - you might be in a completely different boat. the quickest fix though, get the part # of your MAF sensor, RockAuto and replace. That is the easiest, probably cheapest, hassle-free fix.
I would think that too, but I am not clearing the codes. I just cleaning the MAF and putting it back on. after a few miles the code clears. first time it took 4 months to come back, lately it comes about every 500 or so.
