Re: map sensor location 94 taurus?

I am afraid that you do not have a MAP sensor. You have a MAF sensor, or at least my 93' 3.8L Taurus did. I can't imagine why it would be any different.

The MAF is probably loacted near the air box, somewhere inline in the intake hose that goes to the throttle body. If you decide to clean the small wire from the sensor, be sure to use brake cleaner and not carb cleaner.

Is this based on a trouble code you had recevied?
