Be very, very careful when cleaning the MAP sensor. IME, don't push anything down the hole on the MAP or put any cleaning fluid down the hole. I'm thinking I may have done this to mine (I can't honenestly remember but I could have ) and this may have caused my problem, hence one new MAP sensor. It may also have been a coincidence that the MAP gave up working when I changed it.
Have you checked/tested the MAP sensor as per these links http://ww2.justanswer.com/uploads/sk...97_tercel2.pdf and [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8EVhFc5Yqw"]Map Sensor Testing - YouTube[/ame] ??
I had the 5v present on one of the outer of the three pins with the MAP connected (the other outer pin is the earth) but only 0.3v on the centre pin no matter what vacuum I applied. You don't need a vacuum pump, just suck on a length of hose and see if the voltage changes.
HTH - good luck.

But was your sensor dirty gtr1000?
OK, we will try to do it very carefully.
Hi guys.
Have a good news. Took outy the sensor and boy oh boy, it was really very dirty. Cleaned out it with carb cleaner, refitted, and no mistakes so far. Hope that that will solve the problem for some time.
Thanks for great suggestions
Good news Kippa . Let us know if all's OK in a few weeks mate.
To answer your question about how dirty was my MAP - only a light covering of soot on the sticking out bit and the hole was clear. That will teach me to leave well alone. My wife has made this very clear to me from now on .
