sounds like a vacuum leak somewhere.

there is no real way to clean a bad mass air flow. the carbon burns itself on the wire. it may be the issue but check for other vacuum leaks first.

no easy way unless you have a smoke machine.

examine the hoses carefully one by one to look for breaks or rips.
