Hi,
If the light flashes, it most likely has a misfire. If you are getting a lean mixture, the first things to check are fuel pressure and an engine vacuum leak. Here are two links that explain how to do it:

https://www.2carpros.com/articles/how-to-check-fuel-system-pressure-and-regulator
As far as the MAP, I attached a pic below showing it. Make sure the vacuum hoses are not damaged to it.
Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.
Take care,
Joe
