Six months or so ago I cleaned the MAF and experienced a temporary improvement, but nothing like this. I didn't have any concrete evidence that the O2 sensors were bad, but just decided to change them all with the miles on my car.

If you're having MAF problems, I wouldn't hesitate to replace it. Cleaning may help, but is a temporary fix (at least in my case), and didn't produce the results of a new sensor.

Went on a 180 mile round trip today and was amazed by the improvement.

Hi,

Good for you! It's amazing how much better the car is once it's breathing correctly...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
