well, those Q - tips have ruined as many MAFs as they have saved .... use spray solvent , and a fine tipped atrists brush , c a r e f u l l y.... allways use genuine Ford MAFs and O2 sensors , calibrated for your vehicle Not parts store one size fits all parts store stuff. The check engine light is usually trying to tell you something, It's important to check it out. You can clear the light/ code by disconnecting the battery for 15 mimutes, and start over.....
