they have MAP sensor (like the 3rd gen 3S-GE), you should use compressed air, cleaners can damage parts in there (taken from the toyota 3S-GE repair manual)

It may lack an AFM, but most cars can benefit from a fresh can of compression, something worth looking into imo.

and while you buy the can of compression i highly reccomend purchasing a left handed screwdriver, a skyhook and asking for a long wait...

I have no idea what you are all talking about... what's this about a can of compression? and cheers for the manuals Rusty.

I just know I used to take the AFM out of my old car and give it a wee clean, figured it would pay to do the same to this car.

Basically what I'm saying is is there a way to clean whatever sensors the air flow, and if so, how do I go about doing it?

The last few posts have included products that don't exist, but they were created to trick apprentices. :wink: :lol:

Don't worry about them, was only having you on :)
