pressure is approximately 29.92 in Hg. For every 100
feet of altitude, barometric pressure drops 0.10 in.
Hg. If a storm goes through, it can change baromet-
ric pressure from what should be present for that
altitude. You should know what the average pressure
and corresponding barometric pressure is for your
area.
REMOVAL
3.7L V-6
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor is
mounted into the front of the intake manifold (Fig.
31). An o-ring is used to seal the sensor to the intake
manifold (Fig. 32).
(1) Disconnect electrical connector at sensor.
(2) Clean area around MAP sensor.
(3) Remove 2 sensor mounting screws.
(4) Remove MAP sensor from intake manifold.
(5) Check condition of sensor o-ring (Fig. 32).
