    On my 1995 Toyota Tacoma my mass airflow sensor doesn't have as defined of a hot wire as my last Toyota. I am just curious on how to clean this one. Thanks

    You should see two wires inside that small hole. Spray it down with MAF cleaner.

    Don't touch the wires though. They're very fragile and MAFs are very expensive

    I always remind peeps to reset the ECU after you clean the MAF. :thumbsup:

    I always remove the EFI relay from the fuse panel while cleaning the MAF and letting it dry.

    Plug it back in before start up and it takes a few start/driving/stops before it relearns itself.
