    Dude, you even explained how these sensors work! top job.
    Question though: if you say that the engine is running rich, i think the computer is telling to turn up the amount of fuel, not down.

    I cleaned my MAF and fixed the problem. There was no code, just stalled and ran lousy. Limped home. Used the right stuff to clean it that I got from the auto parts store. Did find, however, that when I cleaned it but forgot to hook up the electrical plug, my engine ran great, but THEN it threw a code. So, if your maf is acting up and you are on the road, try unplugging the connector to get your engine to run until you clean it and reconnect. You will need a device to clear your check engine light.

      Yea if the maf has a problem reading the airflow which is causing it to run bad..its a good way to know if u have an issue with the sensor as well
