    for those like myself witha cold air intake that uses oil it is a good idea to clean the mass sensor after you first install the cold air intake or after you wash it and re-oil it since some of the oil will find its way to your mass,trust me you dont want the dealer tell you this is the reason the check engine light is on or your car drives like shit because of the cold air kit you intalled .

    Try resetting the ecu / clearing the code.
    If it comes back, then you have a problem.

    no no no . you should weld your hood shut. you should never spray carb cleaner on a mass air flow sensor . thats why they invented “mass air flow sensor cleaner” unless you want to blow it out when have to spend $200 on a new one. they are very sensative, water,temp,vibration can all destroy one. and never touch the element. the oil on your hands can wreck it, just like you should never touch halogen light bulbs with your fingers.
