    Excellent video! Thank you. I'm curious, can one just spray MAF cleaner over the MAF sensor just as you were holding it, or does one need to remove the torx screws and remove sensor? I have a 2004 Ford Taurus Vulcan so I think it's same setup as yours. Thanks!

    The aluminum intake manifold of my duratec had black carbon buildup after 175,000km I completely disassembled it and went through a couple cans of oven cleaner and used a high pressure washer to blast all the inside clean. Ben from Australia.

    I just cleaned TPS on my 03 Taurus SEL n its dropped my idle 500rpm. Cleaned my throttle body while I was at it runs like a 24V DOHC! Thanks.

    That black liquid in the throttle body was the run down from when you sprayed the cleaner into the IAC hole...Alaska here

    Don't use carb cleaner... Use MAF cleaner.

    Thanks for the excellent video! I am a Kentucky gal that maintains her own car. This helps tremendously, going to clean it all out tomorrow.

    Just wanted to say thanks for posting this video... Four years later and it is still helping people. I drive a 2001 Mercury Sable... With a blown head gasket due to my daughter's father (who was a mechanic by trade). 😠 But luckily I kept on him until he finally got tired of my "nagging"... But by then it was too late. He did flush it all and did everything to help prolong it's life afterwards. But now that we are separated he refuses to help me with my car...and everything else but that's a whole different story altogether. So now I'm stuck paying or figuring it out myself. I just spent $500 having A BUNCH of stuff done (ac troubles, alternator, etc) So I'm not in a big hurry to fork out more money. I've seen this done many times.... Constantly watching family and my ex's family work on cars. So I feel fairly certain I can do it... But I KNOW I couldn't of without this video. So you just saved this single mom money, that I don't have... Four years later! Just wanted to know how much it is appreciated... Ohh and this comment is coming to you from the Sunshine State. 😉

    Just bought a 2002 with 76k miles on it. These videos have helped me figure out the few issues it’s got. Watching from WV

    Thanks for the video. My 2003 Ford Taurus was idling badly and I did everything in your video ( along with changing the air filter )..my car runs great now. Better than when I bought it over a year ago . Virginia

    I will testify that cleaning the MAF, the IAC and the throttle body brought new life to my 1991 Ranger.

    Hello from Florida! I have a 2003 Ford Taurus. My check engine light came on this morning and the code said it was the IAC. I'm hoping it just needs a good cleaning. I will be trying this tonight. Thank you for this video!
