79407, Finding the pressure option on a SAFC, I know, maybe stupid.

But can someone help walk me through the steps to get to the pressure readings on my SAFC to check my MAP? I learned how to check the vac to map reading, I just need to know how to get there. My garage is 5 miles away and I dont want get there and not be able to find it. Thats the only reason Im asking you guys first.


Also is it possible to hook compressed air to the intake manifold to check for anyleaks? If I close up the TB opening of course, and if so, how much pressure you think is safe to run through the manifild without blowing anything?

Thanx, AGAIN!!

OK, Ive been searching all morning, and I think read that the top reading is the map. Is this correct?

Then still, any thoughts on the compressed air?

on your monitor settings just select pres and it will give you your map pressure. or are you wanting the voltage reading comming off the map? if your looking for the voltage reading to the the "ect." menu, then scroll down to #4 labled "sensor check". the in-1 row shows your voltage. if you did the blue wire mod (hook up to o2 sensor) that will be next in line...then your tps voltage. hope this helps.

oh, and i dont see how your going to plug up your intake mani. you cant completely seal your TB butterfly valve. you have the IAC chamber which you cant close really, and that other vac line up top of the TB. then you have all the vac lines comming out of the back.
