Anybody replaced a MAP Sensor?

I was wondering if anybody has replaced their Map sensor. I'm running a PFC and I'm having some running and starting problems. I'll be checking this today and the temp sensor. Please let me know if there is anything else that I can check. The car is running very rough and very hard to start. Once started can't get it started again. I believe it's running very rich.

yeah that sounds like a hot start problem

wonder if your engine has low compression or you have a leaking injector



are you using the fuel pressure regulator solenoid?



I dont think your map sensor will have much to do with the car not starting

just your idle will be horrible and the car will run real rough but it should start ok without it even plugged in.
