Question

or is it best to replace ?

Engine is fluctuating on the revs at idle between 100 & 1000.
It does not happen all the time & seems worse after a long run.

I have searched & found similar posts that point to the MAF.
If the MAF can be cleaned hqas anyone got any pointers please ?

Thanks.
Andy.

Yes it can. Have heard brake cleaner will do the trick.

Thumbs up

Thanks for the reply.
I decided to pop to Power Engineering this morning & replace with a new MAF. Seems to have cured my idle problem.
