They can be cleaned. There is a new product out by CRC to clean the wires. Do not attempt to touch the wires with anything. They break easily and parts are expensive.

Rockauto.com lists them from $41-$212 -- 2001 FORD TAURUS 3.0L V6 OHV : Emission : Mass Air Flow Sensor. I would try cleaning it with a $12 can of spray first. --- Cleaning video -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPT8rL0noYg -- Amazon price -- http://www.amazon.com/CRC-05110-Mass-Sensor- Cleaner/dp/B000J19XSA
