Hi,

It is located at the top of the air intake. I attached a picture. Let me know if this helps. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Take care,
Joe

Inspect your ignition coil adapter,and also kickdown cable, could be incorrec cable adjustment.But to me it sound like your catalytic converter is clogged,,or faulty.

I am trying to get a diagram of where to find the map sensor on my explorer. So that my husband can found out what the part number is and to go to Checkers and get a new one, because Checkers can not sell us one un til we bring in the the one that is in there right now and we can't find out where to even look, because are not gettinga ny answers from ford or any one else on where to even start to look, because they want us to bring it in to them, so that they can charge us $80. Plus dollars to just tell us where it is and that is not even asking to change the sensor!

Hi Edna,

If I may ask what problems are you having?

And also Ford does not have a MAP Sensor . They have what is called a Pressure Feedback EGR Sensor and it looks like this....

It is located on the drivers side of Plenum about midway.

Hi there.

MAP SENSOR DRIVABILITY SYMPTOMS

Anything that interferes with the MAP sensor's ability to monitor the pressure differential may upset the fuel mixture and ignition timing. This includes a problem with the MAP sensor itself, grounds or opens in the sensor wiring circuit, and/or vacuum leaks in the intake manifold (airflow sensor systems) or hose that connects the sensor to the engine.

Typical drivability symptoms that may be MAP related include:

* Surging.

* Rough idle.

* A rich fuel condition, which may cause spark plug fouling.

* Detonation due to too much spark advance and a lean fuel ratio.

* Loss of power and/or fuel economy due to retarded timing and an excessively rich fuel ratio.

A vacuum leak will reduce intake vacuum and cause the MAP sensor to indicate a higher than normal load on the engine. The computer will try to compensate by richening the fuel mixture and retarding timing -- which hurts fuel economy, performance and emissions.
