I am looking at pulling my MAS for cleaning for the first time. Are there gaskets that I should have in hand, before starting? While it is off anything else I should look for there?

TIA

Do you mean the mass air flow sensor? What kind of car? If is't a Q and you mean the MAF just unplug it and remove the entire air cleaner cover. Spray gently with brake parts cleaner, then reassemble. No need to unbolt the MAF from the air box cover.

Also..... Not a bad idea to rinse, lather, repeat..... Always repeat.... :D

A couple applications would be good..... Spray it once, let it sit for 10 mins, and then spray again...
