If you want to Purchase a NEW ONE sure. But the accepted method is to use a Carb & Choke Cleaner. See [http://spydermagazine.com/2002/March/maf_clean/maf_clean.htmMAF Sensor Maintenance] http://spydermagazine.com/2002/March/maf_clean/maf_clean.htm Hope This Helps.

Where to put brake fluid in an 1989 Dodge Spirit?

Before you add brake fluid, are you SURE you need to add some? Because as brake pads wear, the brake fluid level goes down, but the brake pads need to be replaced then, BEFORE any brake fluid is added. Otherwise, when the brake pads ARE replaced, there will be too much brake fluid in the reservoir, and it will flow out when the pistons are pushed back into it's bore, to make room for the new pads. -Tom.

Where is mass air flow sensor in 1995 ford ranger?

Find the box that contains your AIR FILTER. There is an aluminum- looking housing bolted or screwed to the air box. It is the housing for the sensor. There should be an electrical connector to it also. Keeping the filaments of the sensor clean help alleviate driveability problems with the Ranger (and ALL vehicles). If you clean it, be easy and dont stick anything into the housing. Just spray with BRAKE CLEANER and let air-dry before reinstall. i read were your not to use brake cleaner
