Default What can I do to keep my MAF clean?
I've seen this CRC MAF cleaner? Any thoughts? I just got a new one and I want to keep this one in good working order.

Change your stock air filter often and do NOT use a K&N filter on a stock air box?

Default I had a nuespeed pflow before I think it got oil all over my old MAF>>>
I tried to clean it but vag showed the best i would pull was 170g/s on a revo tt 225. So got a new one put back on stock airbox

Default you can't. MAF's fail. Cleaner is a part-time fix-no conclusive evidence this really helps long term

just be sure to avoid excess oiling. My stock box K&amp;N ran ~10k miles with no resulting issues
