Hi Chris,

How do you know the MAP sensor is faulty? Just want to make sure it's not something else.

The Map sensor is a Freescale part MPX4250AP - you could probably find it at Maplins in the UK, or you can purchase the MAP sensor conversion kit from us here (Assuming V4 controller)

That's crazy! What happens if the map sensor vacuum line is disconnected while the engine is running?

Adding MPS

Post by Matt306 »

I have a TPS board, can i add this part to this board to have a MAP version. I have a Spitfire Mk IV so MAP is my preferred option.

Yes. You just need to install the MPX4250 AP with the port facing down (towards the board). Secure the MAP sensor with a small zip tie or bolts.

The port will extend through a hole that needs to be drilled in the end plate of the unit.

Hope this helps,
