No MAP on this car. The SG doesn't show any noticable change in the O2 sensor reading. It fluktuates between 13.5 and 15.5 ie. HI/LO. Wish I had a wideband...
I popped the hood and traced the route of the line, it's conected to some sort of valve that is also conected to the PBB and below the TB, so there is vaccum somewhere in this arangement, but that doesn't really mater... Why does unmetered air flow cause better mpg?
