Stoney871 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Welcome to the forum. I would either look at the maf sensor or consider that it may have been because you were giving it a long run you were blowing burning carbon deposits out of the cat.

Stoney871 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 You can buy proper maf cleaning stuff but I have seen a recommendation to use brake fluid and thinners. Personally I'd stick to proper stuff. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=160897901046 Tbh I'd hold off unless you get the same symptoms again, just keep an eye out for any more sparks or reduced performance/increased fuel consumption.
