Jonnyboy82 0 Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 Could you not just use carb/choke cleaner as i need to do this and have a few cans lying around. Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Seabrook 4 Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 fairly sure the carb cleaner is too harsh mate but I wait to be proved otherwise Link to post Share on other sites

Jonnyboy82 0 Posted October 7, 2009 Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 Tbh i had a mate who used a carb/choke cleaner on his 8v and he said that after he cleaned the MAF it was sticking? Just wondered if there was anyone else has experienced this? Link to post Share on other sites
Rikki 2 Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Supposed to use isopropyl alcohol as you cant leave any residue or it could kill the maf.......they are so sensitive. The halfords one is for lubing relays and stuff so leaves behin a grease!.. Maplins sell it! Link to post Share on other sites
