HELP! Generic MAP sensor?
I picked up some turbo parts and the guy said he'll just throw in the generic MAP sensor he was running since he won't have use for it anymore. There's no labeling or markings on it at all. Is there any way to test it to see if it's good and use it? Or should I just toss it and find another?
Btw, he said it is a 3 bar, but I don't want to just take his word for it. Hence the reason for wanting to test it.

I had one that would cause lean spots since it would go from reading boost to vacuum intermittently. Spent the money on an omni power one and haven't had any problems since.

GM 3Bar Map sensor part number is gm# 12223861
This version is expensive at over $129
But the cross-reference for the GMC is now 16040749 and directly replaces the original GM#12223861
PG AutoParts.com GM 3 Bar Map
They reference a lot of models from the late 80s early 90s and still available.
Look familiar from HalTech?
Best place to get them..
GM SENSORS.. DIYAutoTune.com
It may be inconvenient, and not look as pretty as the Hondata or omnipower, but not as many chances of fakeness.. and won't fail...
stupid Hondata nonsense

Thanks for your help guys. Yeah I think I'll just toss it and look for a GM one. So even the ones from hondata are no good?

Re: HELP! Generic MAP sensor?
Im currently using AEM map sensors. I've used Omnipower successfully without issue and I had a motorola 2.5 bar that very quickly took a crap due to the cheesy housing IMO. Wouldnt recommend
