Received a used AFM from ebay, destroyed it taking it apart attempting to clean it. It does not look like any of the air flow meters used in past threads I researched. How do I know mine is not working properly? I am trying to avoid paying over $300 for a new meter. Car hesitates around 3K rpm's untill I step on the gas or reduce speed. Could it be the idle control valve?

I am an idiot when it comes to cars (thought I was the smartest person alive after changing my own oil and spark plugs)!

Back to ebay to look for another one in the meantime.

P.S. Any good chrome wheel cleaner products anyone can recommend?
