I think it will Ron. It has been some miles since the last time I cleaned it. I have a Granitelli MAF on the truck.. Bought it used and had to clean it when I first got it..

I haven't really had any issues on the truck. Keep getting an intermittent tpms sensor failure though. Drives me nuts.

Mine doesn't say low pressure but a sensor fault then will clear itself.

Spray some good degreaser like purple power on there first. It'll really help get it clean. Might not even need a steam cleaner. Just a regular pressure washer.

The company that makes it also has a windshield washer fluid that is rated to -35*. Good stuff.
