Q-tips and rubbing alcohol work good if you're careful with the tiny wires. I'd remove it from the intake bellow/lid, remove the ends from the MAF, and CAREFULLY clean the wires. They bend/break super easy, I must warn.
If you can find electrical parts cleaner, it should work well too.

does it throw a code or is it just something you experienced recently?
my power feels down as well so I'm probably going to give mine a good cleaning when I do the new TB ...

yea i cant remember the code it was like a po120 or something, it wasnt my chip so i am not sure but it was the mass air flow... i am going to try the cleaner out first. i was sitting at a red light today and got rearended by a 88 blazer so i got to get that taken care of as well... new bumper and back fender kinda sucks
