Can I use a MAF cleaner on a throttle body?
Yes, you can use a MAF cleaner on a throttle body. However, you should only use a MAF cleaner if your throttle body is severely dirty. If your throttle body is only mildly dirty, you can clean it with a rag and some soapy water. And be sure not to use throttle body cleaner on a MAF sensor, as this can damage the sensor. Only use a MAF cleaner on the throttle body itself. And also, don't forget to clean the IAC valve (idle air control valve) while at it. The IAC valve is on the throttle body and can also get dirty. A MAF cleaner can be used on the IAC valve, but only if it's severely dirty.
