  • Unplugged MAP sensor now car won't start

    To see If something was wrong with my MAP sensor I was told I should try unplugging it and start the car to see how it ran off just the MAF.
    Well tried that and the car would not start at all so I plugged it back in and left it till I went to leave and now the car won't start at all.
    Any ideas?

    its not related to the map, even if you map is unplugged it will run on set parmiters in the computer.

    What was your car doing before?

        Well all you did was unplug your map and plug it back in. That wouldnt cause your car to just not start. But if putting your computer back to stock, revived your car before, i suppose you could try it again.

        So your still running lean and thats why you tried to unplug your map?

        The stock parmeters in your computer are alwasy gong to be on the rich side as well. Its a safety thing. They don't want you blowing up yoru car until you get your sensor fixed.

        As for your running rich problem. Have you ever cleaning your MAF? TB? How old are your 02s?

        The WB o2 stated in the other post will probally be your best bet, alot more presice tunning avaiable.
