I've been chasing problems in my 1995 toyota corolla, I don't know why I didn't just start with this. But atleast she got a new set of fuel injectors, fuel filter, plugs wires and a good oil change. Kinda impressive she has 250,000 miles still runs smooth as silk and am sure she still has alot of life left in er.

Great video George😊👍. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. In over 6 months I had Lag when i push acceleration. Lately drive train pops up every time the accelaration reach 2000 rpm. After watching your video, it motivate me to check my map sensor. I can tell my map sensor was clogged and cover with 1 cm of oil and carbon. After cleaning the sensor with turbo and egr cleaning flluid and the hull in the intake manifold. My engine work very smooth. Now my car accelerate very good and the drive train errors disappear. My car passed 155000km. I think I too need to do a total cleaning of the intake manifold. Again thank you much. You have saved my day :-))

I just made a video with my MAP sensor clean and uploaded it to my channel. I will also need to clean the intake manifold as you have shown in your other video. Cheers!

It is a good idea to clean it every so often however I would be very careful with tellig people to stick a screw driver in it! for 2 reasons, 1 you might force the carbon down further inside and 2, if you stick it down too far you may damage the diaphragm and break the sensor. I personally would not use a screw driver, rather a soft brush or a cotton bud as much less risk of causing damage, or better still just let the cleaner disolve the gunk the spray it out with the nozzle. These components are fragile and not cheap either.

Yeah I thoughtlessly blasted air (really not good as the MAP operates using a sensitive membrane to measure air pressure) and carb cleaner near the sensor while cleaning throttle body... threw a CEL after and ran terribly: high idle, late shifting, power loss, running rich etc. After cleaning the (very clogged) MAP and idle air control, she runs wonderfully. Great and easy thing to do once a year. 👍

@herrbrahms Жыл бұрын
George, do you think that simple cleaning of this sensor might resolve a 25d100 code? (charging pressure sensor signal open circuit or short to ground) It's associated with a Drivetrain Malfunction CEL and engine shuddering under maximum torque demand. There are also codes -- 25d000 charging pressure sensor signal short circuit to b+ 259100 exhaust temp sensor upstream of catalytic converter signal deviation too high 259200 exhaust gas temp sensor upstream of diesel particulate filter signal deviation too high 290b00 air mass system measured air mass too low -- which I consider to all be daughter codes of the actual malfunction. Cheers.

Even if this single process does not make the engine feel more powerful or efficient, the sum of all these things, O2 sensor, MAP sensor, crank case breather valve etc make the difference between an old engine that feels old and an old engine that still feels pretty fresh. And earlier or later such a sensor alone can actually make a big difference, why wait for that, if you can prevent it for free?

Thanks for great videos, I'm driving a 2012 bmw 318d 2.0, check engine light came up with P0406 EGR, so I cleaned up the EGR valve along with the intake manifold and the EGR cooler plus the MAP sensor, the light went out and everything seemed OK until a few days later the light came on again, only this time the code is P046C, again for EGR, the EGR valve is clean and it's flowing nicely, not sticky anymore. Any ideas?

I wont even think on driving anything solid inside a MAP sensor tube, they operate by detecting tiny flexes on a chip at the base of the sensor product of pressure changes in the outside. If you push anything against it you are going to decalibrate it and be screwed. I just blast them with contact cleaner, safe and cheap, but thats me.

Great job, just be careful poking a large flat blade screwdriver into the map sensor as most of them also have a little heat sensor at the opening which is very easy to damage. All diesels cars need the major service of taking off the inlet manifold to clean all the egr/oil combo buildup which definitely effects performance and efficiency of your engine, an good example of anti pollution devices causing more problems and long term pollution than without all that EGR junk in the first place.
