Ohhh so do you have a TPI that uses speed density instead of MAF? The speed density uses the MAP as a replacment to the MAF. My 84 Carbed Camaro used a Map sensor but if it went bad it did not do anythuing drastic.

Ohh.
Yeah my TBI has a MAP also. In fact as far back as I can think all the computer controled cars had a MAP. (computer controled emissions started in 79 here) And it would make sense that a MAP on a TBI would work in the same way as one on a speed density TPI since neither of those have a MAF.

Oh and just a heads up if you still have problems I have seen a bad distributer give a MAP code. A bad dizzy would also give you poor running condition.
