Well I really bonded with my car on Monday, after spending almost 13 hours trying to finish a tune up I finally had to call Dewey to save me from myself and to show me that my rotor wasn?t on all the way. But we got through it and only the MAP sensor tube got broken in the process.

By we broke I mean I broke. Rolling Eyes

its one of the platic hard line tubes. being the MAP sensor, the lenght and ID of the tube will effect readings, so we are going to get him a new one from GM, not just hook some tube up.

Hey if you guys find the part # for that tube, let me know. Mine is in rough shape, and it may be punctured even. The dummy at the dealership I went to couldn't find a # for it. Rolling Eyes

Thanks guys

kelly, the v6 is going to be a diffrent part #, the way we found it, was quite a bit of time on the phone, the part number is acutlay listed as a 'engine vacume harness' it includes a couple of lines, and runs about $8 from GM.
