Default New maf problems?

I had hesitation off idle to 1500rpms, found out it was it was bad maf, replaced three weeks ago and it solved the problem until today? Why is it doing this? Should I spray maf with electrical cleaner to see if it fixes it?

It will allow more dirt to get to the little wires in the MAF

Actually, it has more to do with airflow inside the MAF. They are highly sensitive little bitches on these cars.

Leave the stock MAF alone. How is that .03rwhp from de-screening it treating you now? You wouldn't grind the tips off of your O2 sensors would you?
