Cleaned MAF, now the car just dies
I pulled the MAF out yesterday to spray it with a cleaning solution on it. After i did that and reinstalled it, I started the car up and went to drive it and it went into that "limp home mode" where it will just idle and any throttle at all just causes the car to stall, well lets put it this way it won't take throttle at all. So then I tried to disconnect the MAF but then the car would just die. Did I ruin the MAF by cleaning it? What do you think guys? Appriciate all the help I can get!

I used an electronic cleaner, which I bought at the local home depot store.
