Re: MAF Sensor Maintenance
"The MAF uses a heated wire or film which is stretched across the incoming air flow. The element requires more electrical current to maintain its temperature, as the amount of intake air flow increases. By measuring the amount of current necessary to maintain the temperature of the wire or film, the control unit can calculate the volume of air entering the engine. Since the volume of air entering the engine is directly proportional to the amount of engine load, the ECM can determine the operating load of the engine, by monitoring the MAF signal wire."
This is some info that i found. If it had dirt around the MAF, it would def. make the engine run not like it should
