MAP Sensor Vacuum Hose Connection

[M Peter Leifert]

I couldn’t find a place on the intake manifold to connect the MAP sensor vacuum hose. I looked through the manuals. Know where it goes? Car has been running like new all year. I just discovered it has been disconnected… Go figure. A picture will help if you have one.

Thanks Benny04. I found where it goes, I believe. I'll start it up tomorrow and see what impact making the connection has. Did you notice any differences when it was disconnected vs when it was not?

I dont believe it made a difference in my case, i drove the car 50 miles with the gauge disconnected and didnt really get on it much since my car has been overboosting recently, but overall no It didnt feel any different. But as for everything I prefer it working lol.

I'll let you know if I see a change.

I looked some more and found a note that says the sensor is only used to send info to the dash gauge.
