MAF Cleaner Where to get it?
I am having trouble with my DD (not corvette) and I was told it could be a dirty MAF. I quick look on autozone and advance websites showed no results. Can I use just and electrical cleaner made for sensors, or does it have to be MAF specific?

They sell it, they are not going post those products in the web site.

It's been a while but IIRC it's available at O'Reilly's, AuotZone, etc. Name on the can is CRC; it's a spray MAF cleaner. I don't know if the spray has to be "MAF specific" and electrical contact cleaner may well work, but I prefer using spray that is.
Be sure to turn the MAF up side down to prevent any fluid from entering the base and be very careful around the wires.

e46fanatics.com Its for '99-'05 BMW 3 Series'
I have a 2003 330Ci Its running like crap and I have a code for "Running Lean". I have narrowed it down to the MAF, Vaccum leak, Or one of the 4 O2 sensors (which cost anywhere from $90-150). I got a great deal on the car and it has lasted 2 years with no issues, but when I try to do something Im lost. The germans WAY over engineer stuff.
