what are the censors to clean other than the MAF censor? and where are they? car is running a little rough, was going to put lucas into the tank tonight, seafoam into the intake vacuum line, and clean out my throttle body. but i would like to touch up the censors that can get dirty and malfunction. what would you recomend to use?

Use MAF cleaner on the MAF.

Pull codes and run a cylinder-balance test to help find the source of the rough-running.

I just did this and discovered a completely dead injector accidentally. Car was running fine otherwise.
