simpo Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Pretty sure the map sensor is on the throttle body. Could either replace the sensor or the whole throttle body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerofdreams Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I know on much newer cars its on the inlet manifold somewhere as it measures the Manifold Absolute Pressure. But on a Honda I'm unsure. Have u tried asking a Honda dealer to do a part search as it will give a rough idea on a microfiche Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Also depends what chassis and loom he used. Eg5 esi has map sensor plug on engine loom. So does b18c4 from mb6.Some other eg have map sensor plug on interior loom. So depending what combination he has. He may have two map sensor plugs and is using the wrong one.

KiNK43 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Then that's probably your issue. Eg6 b16 a. Have MAP sensor on the firewall not on the throttle. So I'm sure you will find an unused plug somewhere that doesn't fit anything. This will need to be swapped for the b18c4 MAP plug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Haha don't know about that. I just did a lot of research. So I knew what I was on with before doing swap. It's all about the prep work hey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
