@teravolt6113 5 жыл бұрын

Don't be tempted to do what i did. After done cleaning the MAF i saw the O2 sensor connector dirty with oil. Unplugged it and cleaned this one too, with quick drying no residue contact cleaner spray (the WD-40 specialist one). Long story short, i needed a new O2 sensor because the old one started sending a very low voltage to the ECU and made the engine run so rich that you could see gasoline dripping from the tailpipe. I then learned that automotive O2 sensors need reference air to work and they source it through their wiring (not kidding). So the cleaner took the place of the reference air in the wires and the O2 sensor started reading lean. The O2 sensor was getting very old but this one was an expensive mistake nevertheless. The new one is making the car run much better than before, though.

The MAP sensor seems to be moulded into the actual filter hose on this one and it’s a tiny little thing but, you can see it from the air filter end and reach it with the tube. I used WD40 Contact spray (which specifically mentions MAP sensors in their advert). It worked but, didn’t evaporate. So I dried it out by running a hairdryer through both ends. Thanks Scotty

A few years ago I decided to use some Sea Foam on my 2001 Corolla, shortly there after my check engine light came on. It give's me the error for air system or something, can't really remember exactly. I've gone in and cleaned the MAF a few times but the engine light didn't go off. I've heard other people that used seafoam that say it blew their MAF sensor, just wanted to get your opinion on this, thanks. PS, thank for the video on Gumout multi-system tune-up. My car runs smoother and my speedometer light, that has been out for last 5 years, miraculously came on after using gumout. Have no idea why this would happen, but I'm not going to complain.

@forenamesurname4576 9 жыл бұрын

I think the seafoam has probably attacked the MAF sensor. The sensor wires are extremely sensitive which is why you have to use special MAF cleaner (even WD40 can kill them). You probably need a new MAF, you can buy them for most cars about for $40 online. When using seafoam you should always spray the cleaner in after the MAF or take the MAF off the vehicle. The vehicle should run without the MAF connected but fuel economy will deteriorate and some cars may go into limp mode/safe mode.

@techbill2900 9 жыл бұрын

Forename Surname no one has ever been able to tell me exactly why you have to use MAF CLEANER only on MAF's . Besides there are a lot of different MAF's. There are film MAF's that look like a thin piece of plastic. I have used sensor safe throttle body cleaner on the same MAF as shown in this video on my Impala and also on a film type MAF with no ill effects. Until someone comes up with more than "only use MAF cleaner" and speculations of what not using MAF cleaner can do I am going to continue to use throttle body cleaner. I think sea foam may have left a coating on the MAF wires b/c I believe one of the components in seafom is diesel fuel, I still use seafom in my gas tank once a year. Have used Seafoam to clean my intake have not used it on my MAF. I also have an oiled air filter (K&N) so I have to clean my MAF more often.

@TriggeredGnome 9 жыл бұрын

I had the same issue... it came on but no hesitation in the car and I thought maybe I destroyed my MAF... turns out that you can disconnect the battery for like 10 minutes and the light should go off... its just the sensor telling the computer that the car wasn't running right.

@OMRS1 2 жыл бұрын

You never spray the sea foam before the maf sensor. Always after the maf or straight into the throttle body

ReaLzEdits I think this has to do with a potential liability situation that in this lawsuit happy society, I can't blame the companies for being extra cautious in. I contacted CRC about this situation. They basically replied that their product was designed for hot wire (or plate) type MAF's, anything else is on their own. They also replied that the producers of K-V type units should just replace the unit. Yeah, right... I've got the Email buried somewhere, I can dig it up if you need it. Anyway, my best "educated" guess is, if you've got one these K-V systems, which are now obsolete, but work pretty well, if it's just dusty, leave it alone, if it's gunked up, I would maybe try a zero residue electronic component cleaner, Radio Shack and or any nerd shop has it, and budget for a replacement unit. Just in case. Mine's ('91 mighty max) just dusty, so I just reinstalled it, gently, like a bomb disposal guy would work.

So in 2021 I bought a 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500 5.3l 4wd. For 3 winter seasons it has beat itself up when starting when the Temp is 45 degrees or colder. This truck is extremely clean. Was 19 years old with 105,000 miles when I bought it. When starting it would cough, shake, stall, pop whine you name it all coming from under the hood. So TODAY I finally cleaned the MAP because I was warming it up for 25 minutes to get it to run remotely smooth. So I cleaned it in EIGHT DEGREE weather. The engine was stone cold and it started went up to 1500 rpms and within a second or two down to 1000 rpms and sounded GREAT. So simple. It didn't look like it needed cleaning. They are small perforations and they must get a "film" of oil or something on them. BUY THE MASS AIR FLOW CLEANER little can is $5.00 SPRAY ALL OF IT ON BOTH SIDES AND LET DRY.
