Use this :



Or get a rebuilt from parts store (Napa, Autozone....ect)

They do go bad on occasion depending on age and use.

To translate the above Haiku...

MAF cleaner is nothing other than rebranded and more expensive electronics cleaner. You can buy a can of electronics cleaner spray most anywhere for about $2.50 a can, or less.
