Plato, The best idea would be to clean off the filament before trying anything else. It never hurts to check and it's cheap(free if you have the chemicals). Just use electronic parts cleaner. Spray the filament and let air dry. How long have you had the MAF on your car? If it's been a while then it may be your O2's. If you recently oiled the filter or just put it on(they are sometimes over-oiled from the factory) then yea it is probably just a dirty MAF element.

Nah, the CEL has been on for a while, but just recently I took a bit of a hit to my gas mileage. I'm pretty confident that it is going to be the MAF, but I will clean the airfilter anyway. What do you mean by electronic parts cleaner? Is that just something they'll have at my parts store? Cuase i already have some K&N filter oil, but not sure if it will work with this non K&N filter.

K&N filter oil will work with a non-K&N filter. Just don't over oil it. then cleaning the MAF filament would be pointless. Electronic parts cleaner is in an aoresol can and it does what it says. If you go to an auto parts store(or walmart or radio shack as well) you can usually find it. All you have to do is buy some(usually less than $5.00) and put the little straw thingy on the nozzle. Spray the actual filament from about 8 inches away or more cause they tend to break really easily. if the cleaner isn't hitting very well you can always move it closer. Best thing to do would be ask someone at the counter of the parts store for it or at radio shack. Those will be your best bets. Good luck!
