Nice DIY, as always, Jon. Now all you need is an oil catch can and breather filter. 
There are also specific MAF cleaner sprays at the 'zone and the like.
The ECU output is only as good as the sensor input, in this case most likely the need for a cleaner MAF and/or air filter. Damn computer age.

LOL... true!
I know it'll bite me in the *** one day if I keep putting it off.
True.
An electronic contact cleaner will work the same on your MAF as a "MAF cleaner", but if you feel more comfortable using the bottle that says its for the MAF then use that.
I don't think the price difference is much (if at all).

same bottle size, Electonic cleaner cost like 5 bux. While MAF cleaner cost 7 bux.

So I was re-reading the DIY, and I have one quick question:
When you say remove the wire harness, does it just simply unplug from the MAF housing?

Yep, me too. 'been using it on electronics for years. I was just sayin'.....
Personally... I've been using LPS's electro contact cleaner because I always have a supply around.

But the MAF cleaner at the local Autozone will be fine.

So I finally was able to buy some MAF Cleaner and work on my MAF Sensor today. I also cleaned my K&N Intake Filter while I was waiting.
However, once I reattached them both and turned my car on to see if it worked, my CEL is now on. Should I be worried?
