    In a previous thread I mention a code 22 on my 91 5.0 ho. (Out of a markVII)

    I fixed the vacuum leak in my dash and reset everything. Still have the code. I finally broke out the multimeter on the 3 wires

    My volt power signal is normal (5.2 volts)

    My Sensor ground is normal
    (11.80 volts)


    Now my MAP sensor signal is tricky. I don't have a vacuum gauge on hand so I ran the test anyway on wire 2. I understand it's measured in hertz so I did so and it read 2.706???

    Any advice? I'm debating just buying a new MAP.. $20-30

    Map diagnostics are a area I'm lacking, other than being sure it'd hold vacuum(very important) I've always subbed them...

    A earlier diagnostics says voltage output should be 1.51 to 1.66v at 0-1500 elevation and 1.48 to 1.59 at 1501 to 2500ft... No not real helpful...

    If you go for new one don't cheap out, MAP isn't a sensor I'd trust a off shore mfgr... Other than vac leak I don't think they have many issues...

    My current election is 2,454. The check engine light only popped up once I moved here
