cleaning the maf im going to try and clean my maf and see if that helps clear up my idle at all. ive been told to take it off and use brake cleaner since it doesnt leave any residue after it dries. i know not to touch the wires and all that. just wanted to make sure im doing it right before i do it. any thing else i need to know?

I wouldn't use brake cleaner, just go to your local radio shack or electronics store and find an electronics cleaner. I got a can from radio shack and have used it several times with no problems at all. I also very gently clean the MAF with the end of a Q-tip to clean up the small wires, you just have to be extremely careful. When using the Q-tip I barely even touch the small wires, but after you have sprayed it with the electronics cleaner the build up should come off easily.
