Take the MAF out and shoot some brake clean into the sample port.  This
should clean any goo off.

BTW, the 'wire' is made of platinum, so brake clean shouldn't hurt it.

I've used the berryman carb cleaner for that before too.  No probs.

Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary

deserve neither liberty or safety. Nor, are they likely to end up with
either.
