My CEL went on the other day and it was the very common 1128/1130 fuel air mix codes. I have an OBD-II Scanner and i got the codes and cleared them. It has been almost 500 miles driven mostly to see if the codes come back (you know this has to be done) and they have not. Should i clean/replace the MAF and other things while i am in there or just leave well enough alone, and go in during the winter while it is stored. i know how these cars can be So everyone "if it ain't broke"? or leave it alone and wait?

Welcome to the forum.

I wouldn't replace anything unless the code returns and then check all the values from there. I have cleaned many MAF sensors and in the end always had to replace them so I don't recommend cleaning them at all.
