Re: Map sensor question


#applyRHP editing skills....

It’s the M anifold A bsolute P ressure sensor and so it needs connection to the manifold vacuum tree.


Oh my god thank you sir :D , this also explained why there's a line that's cut off at the vacuum tree, I've been trying to figure this out for a while ...

Map sensor question

Hello everyone, this might be a real dumb question, but is this tube on the MAP sensor supposed to be connected somewhere? I can't seem to find pictures of this map sensor on another 850 and its been driving me a bit mad.

Re: Electric fan always on? 1996 850SE

The fan is on even when the A/C's off, but it doesn't run when the engine's off. Does having the fan continuously on cause any issues?

Re: Electric fan always on? 1996 850SE

Where might the ECT be located at? And actually before I get the wiring re-done, the wiring wasn't technically original itself. It's been exposed and taped up, and the cause of it to burn up was that when the fan stopped working, the exposed wiring was exposed to the engine heat and burned. But ...

Electric fan always on? 1996 850SE

Hello dear forum users, I'm having a slight issue on my 850SE. My engine fan's wiring once burned up for some reason, so I got my mechanic to replace the wiring for it. Now the fan is constantly on when I turn the key. Could this be that the fan's motor broken and is working overtime, or could this ...

Re: Front suspension too low? - '96 850SE

Stock parts here are a little bit costly, and rare too. Is there something aftermarket that makes it ride just as good?

Re: Front suspension too low? - '96 850SE

The owner didn't cut the coil springs, he only did the shock absorber replacements. What set of shocks and springs do you suggest?

Front suspension too low? - '96 850SE

Hey guys I'm having this fairly irritating problem on my 850. The shock absorber on my car was replaced not too long ago by the previous owner, and they're from another 850 and was in pretty good when he replaced it. However the front end is considerably low and in fact it's very low to the point ...

Re: Heavy steering wheel

So I sent back the car to my mechanic and he said he'll do thorough checks on the noises. There wasn't a warranty for the rack replacement, but there was one for the alignment because it was sent to a separate shop. The rack could be from a salvage because my mech took it from a halfcut of an old ...
