For the next guy who has this issue,
I got a cel, and pulled a map sensor circuit malfunction code. The car ran fine, so it seemed, but I did notice a 20 percent decrease in fuel economy. l looked at the stored data in my obdii reader to see that the map sensor showed 27.2 inhg, with no change due to rpms.
I looked for the map sensor to no avail, but came across a detached vaccuum line to the rear of the engine. It was fixed with a small clamp. There are a few electrical switches attached to the firewall, one of which has a nipple for a vaccuum line. I hooked the line up, and checked the reader data again. The cel reset, and life is good. I guess the switch the vaccuum line hooked up to might be the map sensor. I don't know and don't care......

But I think this will help me when I go back out to check out more I know just simple air leaks can cause huge headaches I wonder if something isn’t attached in the very back, let me go squeeze my big head in there shortly 😂
