Some folks use carb cleaner, some use brake cleaner, but you can go to the Advance Auto Parts and pick up some CRC Mass Airflow Sensor Cleaner and clean the sensor per the instructions on the can. It gets removed and installed per the instructions on page 4-25 of your 2008 touring service manual (section 4.13 fuel system, TMAP)
