Yep I kid you not...

Now I have learnt that the MAF is a weak link where that is concerned, but what I want to find out, is would it be help to clean the entire thing with electro contact cleaner?

I mean that should help somehow shouldn't it?

cleaning the maf will help for a little while...the bad consumption will return.
check O2 sensor as well!
