Cheaper to buy a bottle of Isopropyl Alcohol & brush the sensor wire very gently with a soft bristled artists brush. You will probably get a few different answers from other members according to their own experience/s but it has worked for me for over 4 years now :y

If a hot film type MAF is dirty enough to misread, its shagged. Replace it.

I've used Halfords electrical contact cleaner. The sensor wasnt faulty so i cant say it fixed anything; but equally it didnt break it either
