bonnie codes
My wifes 97 bonnie's check engine light came on again a couple weeks ago.. its been about 4 months since we have had any troubles with it stalling or even having the check engine light on.. I had it scanned today and these were the codes p0107 and p0446 (yes the gas cap is on tight). mind you that the intake, TPS and MAF have all been replaced and the car has been running fine ever since.. I have noticed a sligtly rough idle and sometimes when starting the car it hesitates. Is there any easy way of finding vac leaks?

Re: bonnie codes
Your two DTC’s are:
DTC P0107 Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor Circuit Low Voltage DTC P0446 Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Vent System Performance You could have a bad MAP sensor. Check the PCM reference voltage first. It should have 5.0v. The EVAP vent problem could be a vacuum leak. I use a propane torch (unlit) to test for vacuum leaks. Start the engine & open the bottle valve and point near any vacuum connection. If you here the engine rpm increase, you found a leak!

Re: bonnie codes
How do i go about checking the PCM refence voltage? The propane is an awesome idea, I would have never thought of it.

Re: bonnie codes
Rather than rewriting the book on the MAP, I will pass along a recent thread from the LeSabre forum that has all the testing info and some good pics & part numbers for your review. CLICK HERE
BTW, the grey (GY) wire is the PCM reference 5.0v wire and the light green (LG) is the signal wire. Of course, black is ground.
