What is the purpose of the map sensor in cars?
the map's purpose in a speed density type air/fuel management system (no mass airflow sensor) is to read intake manifold vacuum/pressure and help adjust fuel amount accordingly, along with inputs from other devices such as the throttle position sensor, engine coolant temperature sensor, and intake air temperature sensor.
Map sensor symptoms?
The purpose of a MAP sensor is to monitor the pressure of the intake manifold by automatically adjusted the amount of air or fuel being taken in. Symptoms of a bad MAP sensor include poor gas mileage, idling problems, and fouled spark plugs.
