MAP Sensor

An output that causes the ECM to sense a higher than normal manifold pressure (low vacuum) can cause the system to go rich. Disconnecting the MAP sensor will allow the ECM to substitute a fixed value for the MAP sensor. If the condition disappears, substitute a different MAP sensor and continue testing.
