Hi Paul,

9 games back with the clock ticking, I don't know if we can pull it off...

Ok, well, MAP or MAF sensor? Barometric sensors are usually integrated with the Mass Air Flow sensor and not the Manifold Air Pressure sensor. I could be wrong though, yes, it happens! Do you have the codes so I can research this for you? I would hate to see you go through all the work it will take to replace the wrong part! LOL
