Default Map Sensor......Doubts????

Ok....for some reason I decided to take off my map sensor of my TB. Now someone correct me if im wrong but doesn't the map sensor have some sort of o ring around it. I mean on the nipple itself? And what are the consequences if any for not having it?

Man could this really be the reason why my car has always sort of ran like ****?.....? I mean I have a d16y8 yeah yeah its a D but a have a D15B vtec on my other car and with the same bolt ons and that car runs better and smoother. This motherflower(d16y8) runs like ****. I mean I don't recall if my d15b has it or what not but I figured I was missing it somehow and was wondering if that would throw my map readings off? And I guess it does. Anyone else got some opinions?

Yeah, your MAP sensor requires a vacuum. Yours does not hold a vacuum due to the lack of the gasket hence your car getting skewed readings which can contribute to rough idle, idle surging, crappy throttle response, etc.

Part number 16075-P07-000 :-)
http://www.hondaautomotivepart...2.gif

It's #3 in the image, far off to right, next to #14 which is the MAP sensor itself.

Best o' health. It's $2.24 from a local dealership, which'd save you TONS on shipping from one of these online dealers.
