Absolute Pressure Sensor: Specifications
SENSORS, INPUT
Engines may use one, or a combination of these sensors. All sensors appear the same. Manifold Absolute Pressure sensors have a vacuum line
connected between the unit and manifold vacuum. On Barometric Pressure sensors, the line is not used and the connector is either open or has a filter
installed over it. Pressure sensors also have a vacuum line between the sensor and intake manifold and only appear on carburetted models.
Barometric Pressure Sensors: Measure voltage with ignition on and engine off.
Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensors: Measure voltage with ignition on and engine off. Start engine and apply 10 in./250 mm Hg to unit, voltage
should be: 3.8L Turbo 4V, 0.9-1.7 volts less; others, 1.2-2.3 volts less.
Pressure Sensors: Measure voltage as indicated.
5 volts reference.
