Yes. Make sure you use only MAF cleaner -- aerosol spray. Do not touch the filament inside the unit or you will be buying a new one. Spray the cleaner. Let it dry/evaporate for several minutes and reassemble. Should be good to go if a dirty MAF was your problem.

Yeah, I figured. I just cleaned it. But I've been told the main problem with my S70 is the ETM. I'm going to get it checked out sometime later this week and replace it. Hopefully it fixes everything. *Sigh
