I would replace the MAP sensor. I had the same problem, except it happened immediately. As soon as I turned the car on, it would idle real high and lumpy. CEL came on as soon as the car started and it was code 3 as well. I replaced the MAP sensor and that fixed my problem

is yours on the throttle body or bolted to the fuel filter/firewall? Whichever type yours is, just get that kind. You could probably go to the junk yard and find yourself a few MAP sensors to take home and try out and keep whichever one works
