MAP Question

Post by FXST02 »

2nd question for the day.

NA motor, is there any offset that can be used when key off/motor cold your MAP reading is 102 - 103? Just accept the fact?

Try/Buy another MAP sensor? I think it is the original one.

Not the end of the world really. When it reads 103 while running it'll be off the 100kpa column anyway
