The MAF on my 4.0L actually went bad a few months back. I tried cleaning it several times but without luck. I bought a used one on Ebay for about $30 and that worked great. You just have to make sure it has the same part number and the correct version number.

Yeah, there are different versions of MAF, with small film inside ore with nicel-chrom hair ore othe type....
ECM is parametrized for relevant MAF.
