[Supras] Failed AFM?

[Hacker J]

The CRC MAF cleaner will not work. Freon will clean the K-V AFM without damage.  Too bad its unavailable now.  But, if you happen to have some electronics grade freon cleaner leftover in your garage....

Mike, are you by chance using an oil type air filter? (K&N or similar) I've had similar problems that appeared to be cause by buildup on the AFM sensor over time. I have also heard others mention the same problem. Historically there has not been a method (AFAIK) to clean the very sensitive mirror in the AFM sensor. I have seen a MAF cleaner advertised in some magazines that may work (CRC Is the manufacturer,   <http://www.crcindustries.com/auto/content/products.aspx> http://www.crcindustries.com/auto/content/products.aspx) but I have not seen this in the store to try it. We had tried different agents that we 'thought' would leave no residue but still the sensor failed and triggered code 31.

Hope this helps,
