Please experts / gurus, my car's Mass Airflow sensor (MAF) popularly called Airflow Meter needs to be cleaned, so my mechanic has told me that injector cleaner would be used for it. Please is it right to use injector cleaner for MAF? Who have experience on this please share

an electronic cleaner is preferable
spray and allow to dry

Exactly.

Don't use anything other than MAF cleaner. And be gentle.

Maybe Gazzuzz sells it.

I recently soaked my maf in a bowl of fuel after removing rubber by the base of the sensor for about 30mins, cleaned it till it was fully dried. Fixed it back in the car (Mazda cx7). After 25mins fast drive, the ECU accepted the new reading and the vehicle doesn't consume much fuel like before, also it moves faster.
So using fuel isn't bad, so long as the rubber for air leak is removed and replaced after cleaning.
