F6A MAP sensor

[edm418]

Hi all, I need a MAP sensor if anyone has one for sale please let me know...

Also, does anyone have a clear photo of one in situ?

thanks


p.s. would a MAP sensor from another car be suitable?

[djflex]

which motor F6A Sohc/Dohc, turbo or asperated?

Ill do some searching

[edm418]

Hey its a DOHC turbo from an ea11r... thats all I know!

but if you need more info, let me know and I'll see what I can dig up...

thanks for the help so far anyway

cheers,

I'll track one down for you and also take a photo of mine (sohc) im certain they will be the same

Here a short video explaining how it works

Hey thanks for the vid

I was just quoted $460nzd for a new MAP sensor ex japan by Suzuki NZ.

I'd have to sell the car to pay for that!

I probably have a couple from cappo's lieing around.
I will check today and let you know.

Hey Grant, that would be fantastic! thanks heaps

there is a picture included as well

I spoke to a chap on ebay who is wrecking a f6a dohc, if you can provide a pic he should have one as well


Here is photos of my Manifold and all the sensors i could find

Im guessing (could be wrong) that this is most likely the MAP sensor

The manifold absolute pressure sensor (MAP sensor) is one of the sensors used in an internal combustion engine's electronic control system.

Engines that use a MAP sensor are typically fuel injected. The manifold absolute pressure sensor provides instantaneous manifold pressure information to the engine's electronic control unit (ECU). The data is used to calculate air density and determine the engine's air mass flow rate, which in turn determines the required fuel metering for optimum combustion (see stoichiometry) and influence the advance or retard of ignition timing. A fuel-injected engine may alternately use a mass airflow sensor (MAF sensor) to detect the intake airflow. A typical configuration employs one or the other, but seldom both.

MAP sensor data can be converted to air mass data using the speed-density method. Engine speed (RPM) and air temperature are also necessary to complete the speed-density calculation. The MAP sensor can also be used in OBD II (on-board diagnostics) applications to test the EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) valve for functionality, an application typical in OBD II equipped General Motors engines.

HI thanks for the photos and info, I didn't realise they could get clogged up like that!

this is the location of the MAP sensor on the cappa. It's not on the block which will be why it didn't come with the engine when I bought it...

edit> MAP sensor part no. 1859-64D00

The pics above are of the IAC or BOV controller.
The MAP sensor is mounted on the firewall at thge rear of the intake manifild in a cappo.
I will check today but am pretty sure I have a couple.

Found the MAP sensor on my F6A sohc it looks like this

part number on sohc is #18590-64d00

[grant4561]

Heres a pic of the MAP sensor mounted on the firewall behind the manifold.
It's vacuum line is connected to the brown plastic fitting on the rear left of the manifold. The fitting has a second connection which is blanked off and usualy only used to check vacuum/boost when servicing.

I have one and will send you a PM now.
