brake clean vs carb cleaner

does anyone know if brake clean will harm the throttle body and mass air flow sensor? i need to clean mine but i dont have any carb cleaner, just wondered if the brake cleaner would hurt anything.

Well I used it for my maf. Doesn't mean it's right tho. i mean seriously how different can mass air flow sensor cleaner be from a good non chlor brake cleaner. I'm just saying. Look at it this way, they both give you a hella buzz if your stuck under the car spraying something off

I could be wrong but I thought Brake Cleaner left a residue of some sort, unlike MAF cleaner.
