Im trying to figure out where this connects to any help? And when I unplug the map sensor the car dies, is that normal?

 

probably the TPS plug, the map and TPS plugs fit each other you might have them switched.

 

The tps is already connected, but is the car supposed to die if you unplug the map sensor?

 

Try switching them like i said they both have the same plug, maybe you have the TPS plugged in the map and the map in the TPS.

 

That other plug thats just sitting there on top of the intake coupler ^^ looks like it might be for the IACV or the IAT sensor on the intake manifold.

 

The tps wire won't reach the map sensor, but can you answer my other question

 

The iacv is connected too?

 

Ok sometimes the wires are torn from the harness and have more room to move but thats not the case as you say so we can eliminate that. And yes your engine should die with the map disconnected.

 

on the back of the intake manifold! you can see it on the last pic you posted!!

 

It should go to that or the IAT sensor. unless its a swapped engine like a ls or C5 swap using a gsr engine harness which leaves a few sensors that are not used.

But is your main problem just figuring out where that plugs too? how does the engine perform?

 

The engine is an ls vtec so yeahl. But It runs fair but like I said it idles really low and dies most of the time. Do you think replacing the map sensor would help?

 

I need help!? My car idles really low and sometimes dies what can this be??? I just replaced the map sensor be cause it was throwing code 3 but seems the same

 

Starting Problems

 

What ecu are you using or is the engine tuned at all?? or do you have some BS chip setup.

 

Stock p72 ecu and no its no tuned.

 

 

Get it tuned GEEZE!! and your wondering why it won't idle right...........

 

And that's why it dies?? Why is my cell on for the knock sensor then?

 

Yes it can very well be the reason in fact i bet you 99.9 % it is.

Your cell is on for the knock sensor cause you probably don't have it connected? i mean is the sensor plugged in? have you even checked?

Get it Tuned and i believe the tuner can eliminate the knock sensor.

 

Yes I have checked and its not connected but like I said before I can't find the plug? And I'm trying to sell it man that's why I don't want to tune it

 

Try cleaning out the IACV. might help it idle better and not die on you.

 

Alright so the knock sensor has nothing to do with it
