Mass Airflow Sensor Cleaning and Replacement in Stockton, CA

Toole’s Garage Stockton offers broad range of automotive maintenance and repair services, including comprehensive engine services and repairs. Mass airflow sensor (MAF) cleaning and replacement is among the services we offer. Mass airflow sensor is designed to monitor and measure the amount of air that flows into the engine – this data is passed to the onboard computer that controls and adjusts how much fuel is pumped into the engine. Based on this information, the computer can also calculate the amount of exhaust gases that will be produced.


Multiple symptoms can indicate that mass airflow sensor is malfunctioning – power loss, rough idling, black smoke coming out of the tail pipe, or check engine light. Failure of the mass airflow sensor can even cause misfires. At Toole’s Garage, our nationally ASE certified technicians can investigate these symptoms and determine if the mass airflow sensor is indeed at fault.


To avoid such problems, Toole’s Garage Stockton recommends regular engine air filter replacement, along with regular cleaning of the mass airflow sensor. If the symptoms persist, professional inspection and diagnosis will be necessary to determine if it is the mass airflow sensor that’s at fault. If it turns out that the sensor is faulty, it will be replaced.


It is important to resolve mass air flow sensor issues in a timely manner. If not handled expeditiously, mass airflow sensor failure can lead to catalytic converter damage. California stringent air quality standards make catalytic converter replacement a very expensive proposition, so at our Stockton auto repair facility we do our best to avoid situations which could result in the need of a new catalytic converter.


Toole’s Garage Stockton is a family owned and operated automotive service and repair facility. We offer complete range of auto maintenance services and repairs, and provide our clients with an industry leading 36 months / 36,000 miles nationwide warranty.


So call our Stockton auto repair shop if your vehicle indicates potential mass airflow sensor problems. Our staff will be glad to assist you. Our highly skilled mechanics will diagnose the root cause of the issue, and will suggest the best course of action to remedy the problem.
