Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior engine running nice and smooth

i have a 2000 celica gts with 42000 miles on it. lately when i start the car, put it into 1st gear and push down the gas to go, there was a slight hesitation. would have to give it more gas because it seemed like it would want to stall. but after reading some reviews on cleaning the maf air flow sensor, i went out to autozone and got some electronic connection cleaner/degreaser. everything from startup to idle my engine is performing so nice and in tune. just wanted to say thanks for those that had input into the tip.

^^^you welcome<< i'm pretty sure they would tell you that. :O)

mine does that every now and then...guess i should do that as well

where is the review on cleaning the mafs i would like to do this in the near future

here is the thread. it is under the install feature, engine.

Do you clean the temperature probe as well?

??

nice im going to
do this saturday

yeah you clean the tempature probe too. i just sprayed the tempature probe with the cleaner and and lightly wiped it with a q tip. for the actual sensors (2 thin wires) i just sprayed them and didnt use a q tip, they are so thin and fragile didnt want to mess them up. just make sure you use the right cleaner (cleaner/degreaser, that is electronic safe which quickly dries).

I cleaned my maf sensor the other day, and it is like day and night on how my car runs.
