My mechanic suggested that I clean my MAF sensor to see if it helps my overly-shaky idle. He mentioned I could use a little bit of brake cleaner rather than going out and buying a solvent specific to cleaning MAFs. I trust him but want to confirm I'm not going to destroy my $280 MAF. I guess an $8.00 can of cleaner wouldn't put me living in a cardboard box, but it would save me a trip to autozone. Thanks!
