Default P0430 fix

Just thought i would share my fix for P0430 code on my 2016 F150 ecoboost. The check engine light would actually go out if I drove the truck hard but come back when driving light footed. I am in Canada and it is cold here now. I noticed alot of steam from the exhaust even when the engine was at operating temperature so I knew it was adding to much fuel. Bought a can of mass airflow sensor cleaner and removed the mass airflow sensor and noticed it was coated in oil. Sprayed it with the cleaner and put it back. The truck runs amazing and no more P0430. Hope this helps someone.

Sprayed the Mass Air meter huh!
Don't think you have one on that engine.
What/where was this you sprayed?
Reason I ask is these truck engines use a MAP Sensor inside the Intake Manifold. It senses Manifold Vacuum level and Temperature changes.
Good luck.
