MAP Sensor

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 19 other vehicles, including the 1996 Chevrolet Chevy Van, 1995 GMC Vandura Special, 1995 GMC Vandura, 1995 GMC Sonoma, and 1995 GMC Safari. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If control module senses higher than normal manifold pressure (low vacuum) system can go rich. Disconnecting MAP sensor allows control module to substitute a fixed value for MAP sensor. If rich condition disappears, replace MAP sensor and continue testing.
