   Just curious ..can a MAP sensor be cleaned (like ICV) or if its playing up is it best to just replace?

   No harm in cleaning it, there was a thread on here the other day about how to clean it

   If it ain't broke don't clean it you will prob's break it. Use carb cleaner if you a clean freak wont make a blind bit of difference though.
