I'm sitting at the computer w/ MAF... I'm putting the screen back on (I think that's the cause, thanks Ob)

What's the proper way to clean it... Can I buff the tunnel w/ a dremel?

 

I believe that is the correct way to do it

 

Wasn't there some deal w/ using carb cleaner?

ARG! Just sitting here waiting for a reply so I can get back to work!

Thanks.

 

if you just have the tunnel and the electrical part is out you can use what ever you like a fine grit wet sand paper would work fine. after you get the tunnel clean and assemble the rest make sure that the "hot wires" are intact and clean. if you must clean them use a light mist of electrical contact cleaner

 

brake cleaner - it leaves no residue. carb cleaner is a no-no

 

yes make surer dont have a SPEC of any kind of carbon or dirt on them!!! my stang ran like crap!! u could rev it or it wouls bogg and pop, i couldnt figuire it out for over a year, then our friend told me to clen those wires with a q-tip, did it put it back in, got in it, revved INSTANTLY!!! runs great ever since! its hard to believe 1 microscopic spec of carbon can make the whole car run like crap lol

 

DO NOT USE A DREMEL OR SANDPAPER!!!!!!! POLISHING THE INSIDE WOULD BE RECOMMENDED

 

Well, it's a good thing I'm so lazy or else I would've done something...lol How else are you supposed to polish the inside?
