Thank you so much, I am a 60 yr young lady. I cleaned both of these and put it back together, i did have pedal control ,which i had none before i cleaned these. After cleaning, took it for a run, it was idling high and not changing gears, so i also changed the acceleration sensor and OMG, I now have a new car. Thank you, Thank you.I looked at a lot of these,yours was the best. Thank you................................. My car is a 2002 hyundai xg 350. It was easy, saved me 1200. Thank you again.

Easiest way to clean the MAF sensor is disconnect hose each side of MAF then unplug electrical connector then your able to clean it right where it is with MAF cleaning spray . Allow it to dry and reconnect both hoses and reconnect electrical connector :)

By motor driven im assuming you mean an electronically controlled throttle as opposed to one that has a physical wire connected to the accelerator pedal, my car has the former (electronically controlled throttle) - how do i clean that one as im not supposed to touch the valves/flaps ?

I am with you with cleaning out the throttle body and MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor body. However, it would seem to me that the ribbed rubber connectors NEEDED to be thoroughly clean too; along with all of the air flow connectors; right back to the air filter; inside and out. Finally, I would think you should remove the entire throttle body and take it apart and clean it thoroughly; and then put it back together. I could be wrong but that is my humble opinion. I meant no disrespect.

My car is Toyota vitz..I discovered it would jark or irregular drive . I cleaned the throttle plus MAF sensor. But when I started it would not with MAF sensor. So I disconnected it then it would start and run but took double double per mile as before. My coils are ok plus plugs. What's the mess?

Definitely maf sensor issue if you plug it in and don’t start then unplug and starts then that’s the issue replace maf and that should sort the issue. One trick to try is unhook battery for 10mins or so and it resets itself that might help you. Worked on mine with very similar issue.

My car has been having trouble starting lately; usually it starts up fine, but if it has been sitting for a while, it seems to be weak for about 10 seconds after startup, but it runs fine after that. Today, it almost didn't start when I was sitting in the parking lot at my college, so I pumped the gas pedal a few times while cranking it and it barely started, but I was able to get it home. Also, the gas pedal is sticky, so that's what leads me to believe it's a throttle body issue. I plan on buying some throttle body cleaner tomorrow, but is the trouble starting issue related to the throttle body? I just brought it to a mechanic a couple of weeks ago because it wouldn't start, and he replaced the fuel pump, coil packs, spark plugs, and crankshaft position sensor, and I feel like I got completely ripped off so I'm trying to deal with this issue on my own lol (it's a 2001 Nissan Sentra 1.8 btw)

***** Did he replace the fuel pump or fuel filter? those cars have a problem with the check valve thats inside the fuel pump assembly going bad and than causing a hard start sometimes. Next time before you start your car, turn the key to the on position (Position before you crank the engine), wait about 10 seconds than remove your key, insert it again put it in the on position and wait 10 seconds and remove and do this 3 times. Than try to start your car, if it starts with no issues than its the check valve in there or at the very least something related to your fuel delivery. GL

RatchetsAnd Wrenches I tried turning the key to the on position like you asked, but it still started it very weak. It will start up perfectly fine if it has been running for a while, but if it sits overnight, the start is weak. Is it possible that the throttle body needs cleaning, or is that unrelated to the starting?

I'm not trying to bash anyone but make sure you do realize that using maf cleaner on the maf sensor can actually damage it. Your "parts professionals" at the auto zone or wherever will say it's great but if it was the manufacturer would be stocking this stuff. Maf sensors aren't exactly cheap either. And when cleaning the throttle body never spray directly into it spray a light coating on a rag and wipe
@lgnlint
@lgnlint 6 жыл бұрын
It's only the pressure of the exiting cleaner that will damage the MAF sensor if you hold the spray can too close (he was pushing it). It's mainly to work as a solvent, not to forcefully blast the MAF sensor's delicate wires as well.
